git head said 4.3.1 was not sufficient, although I have not looked  
inside the CMAKE files.  I actually took the 4.3.2  source from the  
download tarball on my gentoo box, and the KMM compile has finally  
completed successfully.

I'm just curious how Claydoh built KMM 4.6.3 without libalkimia 4.3.2,  
which seems to have been required for at least a version or two, not  
new to 4.6.3.  Either I'm missing some clue, or there's magic afoot.
