There are lots of packages that only build with automake 1.4. Configure scripts
usually don't need to call automake, it mostly affects autogen.sh scripts and
spec files. 

Yes, it would be possible to make automake 1.7 the default version, then all the
packages that depend on automake 1.4 would need to call automake-1.4
explicitely. Let's see when the automake maintainer will do this step. But this
is likely to break stuff that is more important than KDE, e.g. the cluster stuff
that Mandrakesoft is trying to make money with.
