No sympathy here :) - I compile every version and with and without
the -c switch ("no -c" has dependency problems because of the way
#includes are ordered for some KDE files) plus one extra compile
for RH. I also do that much more than once, because I have
a lot more bugs in the early compiles. I have some shortcuts too,
and I spread it over 4 machines.

I'm thinking of splitting the package with the less used (or
maybe unused) modules (kdesu, kdeprint, kspell, kjs) in a separate
package. That'll save you at least 10 minutes per compile on the
main package :( (but of course the total won't change much) I'm also
thinking of adding more modules down the road (kab looks better now,
maybe kdegames).

I'll look at it. The test for lib (qt or qt-mt) compatibility will
disappear when KDE2 modules are dropped (sip 4 or maybe earlier).
