Separating binaries/libs from two kde versions is easy, that's not the problem.

The problem is, things like, talking to kdeinit, or klauncher.
kdeinit can be linked to only one copy of the libs... so you can't get it to start
apps from two incompat versions of KDE.
Same for any kioslave, etc.

Of course, a standalone app that doesn't use KIO and isn't started via kdeinit
should work ok - but that's quite limiting.
