I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean. Are you talking about
things such as define's so the parser parses the code correctly? There's
no support for doing that currently in kdevelop (not even the custom
makefile manager supports that). I've however recently started to work
on a custom buildsystem plugin that might be able to help you (it might
even be possible to compile the project). You can check it out from
gitorious and then select it when opening/importing your project:

http://gitorious.org/kdevelop4-custom-buildsystem

Its not complete yet though (support for deletion of defines/include
dirs is one of the bigger hurdles right now)
