I consider changing the build system in a long term release as way too risky considering that the core development doesn't use this iteration any more. Any unintended breakage (e.g. a component also not being built on X11) would probably not be spotted and that's something we certainly don't want to do in a minor version.

That's re: the changes to the CMakefile? I frankly don't see the risk. I took care to piggyback most changes to those files on WIN32 conditionals, and there are no APPLEs running Qt/X11 that could run this kde-workspace versin. But checking for false positives on Linux is easy enough (I can try to do that over the weekend). Besides, core development may not be using "this iteration" anymore, but that doesn't mean no one else would spot a hypothetical regression...

No, I often do this when conditionals get too nested to see at a glance if you're in an active/relevant block or not.
