I complained about KDE stuff being in the system set looooong ago.  It is
because of USE flags that they are being pulled in.  I don't like the idea
but if you, or a dev, disables all the USE flags that pulls in KDE, us KDE
users are going to have things breaking left and right.  It seemed to have
gotten worse when hal bit the dust.  At that point udev and other system
tools picked up the slack and KDE got pulled into system.  That's my theory
at least.
I exaggerated. The number of kde packages pulled in on my compute
server right now is about 10, so it's not as bad as I remember.

On mine, kdelibs is one of those, or was last I checked. It seemed to me that the ones that were in there were the larger ones. What next, OOo will be part of system too? Let's not go there, yet.
