Looking at what's been happening in this thread since I last checked my mail, 
I gather you are now faced with doing this. I'm no expert, but I'd say cd to 
each of the ports directories and do a make deinstall. Do all the kde ports, 
leaving the kde3 metaport till last. Then make deinstall quanta, arts & qt.
Now set your PACKAGESITE env. variable as per the instructions on fruitsalad.
Then pkg_add qt, arts, kdelibs, kdebase, kdenetwork, then the other kde ports,  
quanta & finally the kde metaport.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
