Thanks for the debdiffs! They are mostly fine, bug I have a couple of comments:
 * they only mention one of the commits in the patch headers. The code itself 
has both 
    898135a59d91184692ed1bcee8bb4c6d80d6f7b9 and 
65d736dab592bced4410ccfa4699de89f78c96ca, but the patch 
    headers only list 65d736dab592bced4410ccfa4699de89f78c96ca.
 * the precise debdiff needed to have the patch refreshed
 * the raring debdiff does not properly apply because there is no trailing 
newline
 * while not required, typically the patch will include the CVE number. Ie, 
instead of kubuntu_use_pretty_url.diff you might use CVE-2013-2074.diff
 * the changelog does not use the format as described in 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Packaging

Eg, properly formatted changelog entry for -security might be:
kde4libs (4:4.9.5-0ubuntu0.2) quantal-security; urgency=low

  * SECURITY UPDATE: information disclosure via error notifications
    - debian/patches/kubuntu_use_pretty_url.diff: update
      kioslave/http/http.cpp to use prettyUrl()
    - CVE-2013-2074
    - LP: #1178286

I've gone ahead and fixed these issues and uploaded. Thanks again!
