Well, I build kdelibs[frameworks], make install into some local prefix, and 
then I build kdepimlibs[frameworks] configured for that same prefix. Not 
sure what kind of CMake sorcery is involved in kdepimlibs, but it finds KF5 
just fine.

Well, finding e.g. kcoreaddons using something like kcoreaddons_LIBS seems 
to work just fine. I'm not at my office box right now so I can't look up 
what actually happens, but it works for compiling the (for me) relevant 
parts of kdepimlib's frameworks branch. And yes, it's properly linking to 
KF5 instead of kdelibs-4.
