I have 4 Cores here,  but I am not 100% sure its related to jobs,  
maybe its some other weirdness.
It just failed building, what I always do in these cases is deactivate  
MAKE_JOBS_SAFE and the make build again which worked in these cases?

Yep thats what I meant. I changed the port and didn't run into issues  
(although I can't say for sure, since kmail obivously doesnt run on my  
system).

The KIconLoader stuff is not related to PIM, it happens with all the  
software really.

Hm, I think its really bad that kdepim hasn't had updates in a year,  
since it is core functionality of KDE SC and it does have serious  
issues that need to be adressed.

I will try that tomorrow. What is "pim-related" other than kdepim and  
kdepimlibs?

I will do that next, although in general my experience when reporting  
bugs upstream is that everyone says they are FreeBSD-related and  
therefore noone volunteers to fix them :S

Thanks for your help,
