Currently there is no way to override it. If you delete the config file ( 
$HOME/.kde/share/config/kdenliverc ), Kdenlive will try to detect MLT using 
the MLT_PREFIX variable that is defined at install time (by the cmake module 
FindLIBMLT.cmake ).

So basically removing the config file (or deleting the necessary lines) should 
make Kdenlive use the MLT version used for its compilation.

I also just commited a change so that the renderer (kdenlive_render) is now 
taken from the same folder as the running kdenlive instance.

If you still want to work on a patch, it's ok for me.
