Hmm, I don't wish to criticise the maintainer (I have no idea about 
his other commitments), but this port along with other kde 4.1-beta 
ports has been broken for some time.

I sent a complete set of patches to bring the whole lot up to 4.1 at 
one point and got absolutely no reply.

While I have no doubt that the stuff Stefan is doing is far more 
thorough than what I did, I have to agree with ``scrappy'' - it's 
broken, so fix it.  Besides, shipping 2.2.7 w/ broken ports will look 
a bit silly :-/
