So the issues you had were probably because you were trying to use a 
separate CMakeLists.txt file for the screenlocker stuff.  If you look at 
the commit I just made to that branch, I moved it all into the root 
CMakeLists.txt.  It has to live there, because the files need to be 
added to the kwin target, which is defined in this file.

If you wanted to make the screenlocker stuff into a library, you would 
need to export the SaverEngine class - grep the files in libkdecorations 
for KWIN_EXPORT to see what I mean.  Note, however, that the libraries 
in kwin are not done "properly" - the way the export macros are set up, 
they wouldn't work on Windows.  Not that we care about that in KWin.
