Ah Ralf: I've recently read kbuildsycoca.cpp code a bit (again) and there are 
magic stamps like one for language, another for creation time

    // Write KDEDIRS
    (*m_str) << KGlobal::dirs()->kfsstnd_prefixes();
    (*m_str) << newTimestamp;
    (*m_str) << KGlobal::locale()->language();
    (*m_str) << KGlobal::dirs()->calcResourceHash("services", "update_ksycoca",
                                                  KStandardDirs::Recursive );

So any idea why kbuildsycoca could not automatically re-run when we move our 
binaries from machine to machine (when e.g. drive letter changes)?
