Hrm, I hope I didn't add that comment :P  Yeah going the AST route is an 
infinitely better solution.  From what I remember the AST will be what is 
used in KDevelop 4 (I am assuming you are working in KDevelop 3.4 right now, 
correct?) so this is the best way to go.  I harbor a secret hatred for the 
regexp parser, even though I helped keep it around this long :)

If there is any stupid stuff I can do to help let me know.  I have a few 
examples that currently piss off KDevelop and MSVC :)  I also have a few 
senarios with project scopes that confuse our current parser.  I attempted to 
add edit support for scopes, but I think the regexp parser, along with the 
old "ill randomly reorder lines when I dump the .pro file" feature made it 
very confusing to me.
