Yes did that too but its still erroring out.
Any way re the recompile of kde3, big changes have take place. I was talking 
with Pam Roberts and it seems that first up the compile has changed enough to 
this:

#1 You _NEED_ to upgrade to autoconf 2.52, automake 1.5 and libtool 1.4
#2 the compile method has changed to: 
kdesupport
arts
kdelibs
kdebase
kdeaddons (They do say do this last)

Now kde 2.2.2 and kde3.0rc2 download areas do _NOT_ have kdesupport therein.
Hence you cannot compile without striking the -lprce error, I am using the 
cvs as a compile basis as this does have kdesupport. Guess it would work for 
3.0rc2, but no idea about 2.2.2, hence I am compiling 3.0 and doing rpms for 
that
