When I said "to use xdg", I was talking about use only Categories to classify 
menu entries (to not use subdirs like applnk/Games/BoardGames). Your patch is 
still installing files in the old way. OK, it works, but IMHO it would be 
better if kappfinder installs these desktop files in 
KDEPREFIX/share/applications and use only Categories to classify them.
I think it's not really necessary to change the kappfinder source to do this, 
it can be done changing only Makefiles and desktop files, but I may be 
wrong :)
