Yes. I fixed compilation as we needed that quickly (nightly builds for the 
mobile configuration are still work in progress btw, slightly delayed by an 
unstable VM server), but there is still some cleanup needed.

You can test this by using the CMake switch mentioned above, but since that 
changes the compiler arguments (by adding a define), CMake will trigger a 
full rebuild of all of kdepim. It's much easier to just manually swap the ui 
files, I don't think there is any change in the code (yet).

Keep in mind that the current mobile ui is still very crappy, it's just a 
quick hack to allow account setup for testing on an N900. Functional testing 
on the desktop is no problem, usability testing requires a real device or at 
the very least an emulator, but we are still far from that anyway ;-)

nice try ;)
