You could simply add a '-' before the line that installs that file,
so that if it fails, it will ignore the error, and move on without aborting.

For people that don't use kdm (or use an older version of it), it doesn't 
matter much if it installs well or not. For those who do, they should run 
make install as root anyway. Hmm, but it won't make it easy to see the error, 
in case you actually use kdm...
Maybe a global --without-kdm might be a better idea then ?
