I'm planning to have another look at the logs from failed and successful builds, but I strongly doubt I could make a self-contained test case of something that simply doesn't make sense to me. Most projects do build with AppleClang after all. Maybe looking at the changelog for the problem symbols in libkcddb will yield something because that project used to build with AppleClang (if I'm not mistaken!)
I do plan to file an issue against KDE's build system, will link to that here.

As to the exact error messages: they're what you'd expect when the linker cannot find a number of required symbols. Not really helpful I fear.
