Thanks for your help. I didn't expext to have to meddle with the sources of KDE.

For others who will encounter this errorsituation, here is my solution:

In fact there are two places where displayName is defined:
 1) in $KDELIB/kdelibs-1.1.1pre1/kfmlib/kfm.cpp which finally appears as kfm.o
    in $KDELIB/lib/libkfm.a
 2) in $KDELIB/kdebase-1.1.1pre1/kfm/utils.cpp 
 
As the two definitions are identical, I simply deleted the second one. 
Now the make-process goes on (only to find the next problem
but that's another story).
