You shouldn't have given the -u option when upgrading KDE, because now
you got more packages upgraded than needed. -u (--update) upgrades all
direct dependencies also (and --deep would upgrade the whole
dependency tree).
I think you can safely let portage downgrade those packages to the
normal state. If you like living on the edge and all is working well,
you can just stay with your setup, and if you use the -U (--
upgradeonly) switch, emerge will not want to downgrade anything.
That's what I would do in this case.
In case you downgrade and you have buildpkg in your FEATURES list in
/etc/make.conf, you might use the -k (--usepkg) option, this avoids
the re-compilation.
