I would have expected an order like this:

Note that '/home/gerhard/kdevelop4/share' is not in the search path
set by the XDG_DATA_HOME and XDG_DATA_DIRS
environment variables, so applications may not
be able to find it until you set them. The
directories currently searched are:
/home/gerhard/.local/share
/usr/share
/etc/opt/kde3/share
/opt/gnome/share
/opt/kde3/share

because the paths printed out is what is in $XDG_DATA_DIRS.

Anyway, it's just a trifle...
