First, this might not be related to kdepim at all. At some point (after emerging most of kde for example) I installed ccache and switched it on. Then emerge choked on kdepim: make[3]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdepim-3.2.2/work/kdepim-3.2.2/ksync/src' /usr/qt/3/bin/moc ./ksyncview.h -o ksyncview.moc g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../ksync/lib -I../../libkcal -I/usr/kde/3.2/include -I/usr/qt/3/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Wnon-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O3 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -c -o ksyncview.o ksyncview.cpp /usr/qt/3/bin/moc ./ksync.h -o ksync.moc g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../ksync/lib -I../../libkcal -I/usr/kde/3.2/include -I/usr/qt/3/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Wnon-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O3 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -c -o ksync.o ksync.cpp g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../.. -I../../ksync/lib -I../../libkcal -I/usr/kde/3.2/include -I/usr/qt/3/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT -D_REENTRANT -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Wnon-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O3 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -c -o main.o main.cpp /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --mode=link --tag=CXX g++ -Wnon-virtual-dtor -Wno-long-long -Wundef -ansi -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D_BSD_SOURCE -Wcast-align -Wconversion -Wchar-subscripts -Wall -W -Wpointer-arith -Wwrite-strings -DNDEBUG -DNO_DEBUG -O2 -O3 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -Wformat-security -Wmissing-format-attribute -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -fno-common -DQT_CLEAN_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_ASCII_CAST -DQT_NO_STL -DQT_NO_COMPAT -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -o ksync -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/qt/3/lib -L/usr/kde/3.2/lib -R /usr/kde/3.2/lib -R /usr/qt/3/lib -R /usr/X11R6/lib ksyncview.o ksync.o main.o ../lib/libksync.la -lkio /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:ksyncview.o: file format not recognized; treating as linker script /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:ksyncview.o:1: syntax error collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [ksync] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdepim-3.2.2/work/kdepim-3.2.2/ksync/src' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdepim-3.2.2/work/kdepim-3.2.2/ksync' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdepim-3.2.2/work/kdepim-3.2.2' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!!

you probably need to clear out ccache's cache and try this again. this sort of thing does tend to happen with ccache
Just an FYI, it turns out I was experiencing the same thing with kdemultimedia in bug #68408 - I wonder what it is with ccache that makes it so ornery around KDE packages?
Attempt with kdepim 3.3/3.4 and reopen if occurs...
