Well, if I understand it correctly, the plan is to have all the finders in ECM by default.
See http://community.kde.org/Frameworks/Epics/Splitting_kdelibs

"All Find*.cmake modules needed by the framework and used also by other frameworks have been upstreamed to extra-cmake-modules (via the kde-buildsystem mailing list) or directly to cmake (via the cmake list). To make sure of this, do not append to CMAKE_MODULE_PATH, but set it."

Either way, I didn't know the attic was for things that had to be polished... Why does it even have a CMakeLists.txt file then?
