I've been running KDE2 for a couple of weeks now and have had no problems.
The only thing is that I had to install from packages and not from the ports.
I never could get a single kde port to build. 

But since day 1, I haven't had any real issues.  I was running 4.1 and just
upgraded to 4.2.  I like it very much.
