Most likely this is a problem that was uncovered by some change in our
headers. I've seen a lot of commits come down the pipes removing
"unneeded" includes from one header or another... Which of course is the
correct thing to do and it encourages better coding practices to make
people put headers in the right order.

Last I checked, Will was at the very least testing each release on
-current. KDE is such a big package I can't imagine it being very popular
with testers, although with the new GCC snapshot imported I will probably
rebuilt it.
Would it be possible to modify the bento cluster to have another slice
with the minimal -current install, and (using boot0cfg, or modifying a
GRUB boot menu) reboot into -current for an automated package build? Or
maybe this is already done.
