Thanks David, and the others who responded as well.  Seems being pedeantic in 
the cmakekde function isn't the best idea for general use.  It now seems to 
me the best place is for it to be set in individual kde modules/applications 
as the maintainer see fit.

I wonder if we can test for gcc/g++ in a CMakeLists.txt, and only then set 
the -pedantic flag.  Have to do some research. :-)


Thanks,

Mark
