The kdelibs one says "Note: a more rubust[sic!] version of this function is 
included in kdepimlibs/libkmime[sic!]", so I guess it is not ready for the 
job.
If the kdepimlibs version doesn't have dependencies, it could be moved to 
kdelibs, and KMime should use the kdelibs version then.

In any case, KIMAP should use the KMime one.
