[kde-freebsd] broke my kde, any hints?

I recently portupgraded kdebase3 which produced the problem. By now i have de- 
and reinstalled the whole kde stuff, including kdelibs; Problem still 
persists. Since i have been unable to find some kind of startup log for kde 
and are not very familiar with the kde boot process / architecture at all i 
am a little lost as to what i could do to get back a working kde.

Starting kde from kdm yields a less then detailed errormsg:, something 
like 'could not start kdeinit - check your installation'.

I also tried:
%start_kdeinit 
/usr/local/bin/start_kdeinit: Exec format error. Binary file not executable.

and here's a script from startkde:
TRABANT# startkde
xsetroot:  unable to open display ''

I am writing this on enlightenment, so X generally works ... I'd be grateful 
for any hints on where to look, what to do and wtf happened ;)

Oh, and its FreeBSD 6.2 on a IBM T23, i just found out i have the same symptom 
(could not start kdeinit, check you installation) on my server !?!
(pretty fresh 6.2 install with a virgin kde)

regards,
Helge
