Installing both Kdevelop 3.5.5 and kdevelop 4.1.x

[Konstantin Karganov]

I have 3 versions of KDevelop living on my openSuse 11.2: 3.5.5 ,
4.1.0 and current head.
One is from opensuse distribution, two others are built locally and
both have a small script that sets up correct environment
(LD_LIBRARY_PATH, KDEDIRS etc).
KDev 3.5.5 does not see KDE4/Qt4 paths and vice versa.
