Uhm, the shared-mime-info sources contain a freedesktop.org.xml file
which contains various mimetypes. I guess we need to have that in the
update-mime-xx package and set KDEDIRS to include the win32libs/ dir so
kbuildsycoca4 finds it.

Apart from that, I think KMimeType chokes on drive letters. When opening
a file dialog from KDevelop the first call to KMimeType::findByUrl() is
with "file://A:/" as URL and that is not a directory (S_DIR fails) and
neither is it found in sycoca's cache.
