I just tried it today and it worked just fine... Everything is the latest 
master version and for Linux I used the official 4.0 tarball and imported the 
top-level Makefile.

One thing I noticed is that the progress bar doesn't make much sense. It 
approaches 50% and then just jumps directly to 100%. Something to investigate.

In general, it's certainly relatively slow (~15min or so on my beefy machine) 
and does not leverage the available CPUs as nicely as I'd hoped it would. In 
the future, I'll try to optimize KDevelop a bit more for this usecase.
