For kde4 at least, KDE had a policy /not/ requiring systemd.  I'm not 
sure on kde5 (the apps for which aren't even in the tree yet, I believe, 
but it's coming... tho I've been unable to get kwin5 working on amd64 
here with radeon native kernel/mesa/xorg drivers), but I /believe/ 
they're keeping the same policy as I've not seen otherwise.

Of course I've no idea of kde ppc status.
