Add KDE 4.2 compatibility hacks.
Digikam people want trunk libksane compatible with KDE 4.2 for at least a few 
more months
until KDE 4.3+ becomes most popular releases.

why :)

Is it for the convenience of the developers to be able to compile kdegraphics 
trunk without having to install kdelibs >= 4.3?
