I have KDE and kdevelop on both 3.4-Stable and 4.0-Stable. Everything was built using the port sources. I add them on one machine and ftp the distfiles to the other. You have a number of files such as kdelibes, docs, and etc. that are needed. I also think you need something like lesstif installed and then add "HAVE_MOTIF=YES" in /etc/make.conf. The only problem I am aware of is with the CDROM player and cddb. The cddb people changed their URL from www.cddb.com to cddb.cddb.com. Once you change that and chose update, cddb will show what audio cdrom you are playing. They run just fine.
