Maybe you should use existing, old portage features: slots.
Add ":3.5" to the end of all those "kde-base/"-starting lines in
package.keywords, and you'll accept unstable from slot 3.5 but not
from 4.1 (current kde4 slot). You probably can use
match/search-and-replace within your favourite text editor to get it
to the end of all those lines without doing it manually.
Your lines will look like this (but with slot 3.5 instead of 4.1):
kde-base/superkaramba:4.1
Yes, that's the way they suggest unmasking stuff when testing out kde4 ... :)
