Yes, unfortunately there are not enough seeders at the moment. Still 
better than nothing ;)

Well, it seems there are now pre-built packages for kde 4 in FreeBSD 
servers. Just set your PACKAGESITE to 7-stable, i.e:

setenv PACKAGESITE  
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-stable/All/
and install:

pkg_add -r kde4-4.1.0
