no idea about the build error - it doesn't make sense IMHO and I haven't seen it (worked on 4.10 all the time)

the regression I had seen was that the TabBox became too small - thumbnails were placed outside the box.

I will look into it tomorrow again - maybe Aaron found a solution for KWin tells libplasma that we use compositing ;-)
