What do you count as downtime? When it's in the middle of rebuilding kde, and 
I want to use kde, I consider kde down. I've been in that situation with 
Source Mage, and I got kwrite windows with the toolbar icons totally mixed up.

I'm running pkg_check before starting to rebuild, and I got this:

WARNING: No graphics/kdegraphics4/Makefile - package moved or obsolete?
WARNING: No misc/kdeutils4/Makefile - package moved or obsolete?
WARNING: No mail/postfix-current/Makefile - package moved or obsolete?
WARNING: No x11/kdebase-runtime4/Makefile - package moved or obsolete?
WARNING: No x11/kdebase-workspace4/Makefile - package moved or obsolete?
WARNING: No x11/kdebase4/Makefile - package moved or obsolete?

The kde packages are still in wip (which I just updated); there is a 
mail/postfix.
