IIRC 0.40 was needed for the  <generic-icon name="name-different-from-
mimetype"/>, so that one can reuse existing icons and does not need an own. 
Ah, yes, even is mentioned at top of CMakeLists.txt.

Could you try to do a patch to make shared-mime-info not REQUIRED and just 
skip the mimetypes if it is older than 0.40?

The same problem should also exist with 
kdebase/runtime/kioslave/network/mimetypes...

Cheers
Friedrich
