If you set CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH so that it contains 
~/Applications/Homebrew/Cellar/kdepimlibs/4.4.0/ it should be found. You are 
using cmake >= 2.6.3, right ?
I build kdepim and kdebase all the time with kdepimlibs installed to a 
separate directory, so it should work in your case too.

Yes, this should work. Whenever it doesn't work, it should be fixed.
