You can uninstall kxstitch with-              'make uninstall'
and remove remaining source dir binaries-     'make clean'

check configure options-                      './configure --help'

probably                                      './configure --prefix=/usr'
(or for some distros kde path is)             './configure --prefix=/opt/kde'

check './configure --help' for options to disable any support libs
that you think may not be installed.

Not sure about Mandrake, I know a few distros install kde in /opt/kde
therefore you would use './configure --prefix=/opt/kde'.
