We had to solve various dependency / conflict issues with parallel KDE3/KDE4 
installation, but other than that and the occassional Hal breakage like with 
every distribution update, there was no significant work put into KDE3 afaik. 

Of course, tracking all the regressions by a lower level library being updated 
alone is enough maintenance burden.
