Thanks everyone for the feedback. I decided to do the right thing yesterday 
evening and started to setup a base KDE system as the kdedev user. However, 
somewhere in the kdelibs make, it bailed out with 'No space left on device'. 
Disp space is cheap, but not so on laptops :(

I'm going to stick with my kdepim HEAD code untill I find some partitions to 
move around.
