I just seen that it even works without the basehref just fine.

Atm in my stuff there are only full urls like http://www.kde.org in the 
family.inc, where is the problem ? I got here kate.kde.org up and running 
localy by only checking out kde-www, setting server root to 
kde-www/apps/areas + linking the /inc, /images and /styles to the right 
places.
