I'm missing a task so that the mentions of KDE4 in frameworks is smaller than 
it is now, a quick grep gives me stuff like

./INSTALL:2:http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4
./tier2/kauth/src/kauthactionreply.h:158: kde4_add_executable(<helper_target> 
your sources...)
./tier2/kauth/src/kauthactionreply.h:174: 
kde4_install_auth_actions(<helper_id> <actions definition file>)
./tier4/apidox/src/doxygen-preprocess-kcfg.sh:5:kcfg_compiler="`kde4-config --
prefix`/bin/kconfig_compiler"
./tier4/apidox/src/doxygen-preprocess-kcfg.sh:5:kcfg_compiler="`kde4-config --
prefix`/bin/kconfig_compiler"
./tier3/knewstuff/tests/CMakeLists.txt:56:#kde4_add_executable(kdxspreview 
TEST ${kdxspreview_SRCS})
./tier3/xmlgui/src/kbugreport.cpp:395:  // ### KDE4: why oh why is 
KEMailSettings in kio?
./tier3/kio/src/widgets/thumbcreator.h:57: * find_package(KDE4 REQUIRED)
./tier3/kio/src/widgets/thumbcreator.h:58: * include (KDE4Defaults)
./tier3/kio/src/kpac/CMakeLists.txt:10:set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} 
${KDE4_ENABLE_EXCEPTIONS}")

And lots more that seem to be wrong/leftovers/needattention.

Cheers,
