These are the changes that allowed kxmleditor to build:

# ~/tde/tde/experimental/qt3-tqt3/convert_existing_qt3_app_to_tqt3
# ~/tde/tde/experimental/kde-tde/convert_existing_kde3_app_to_tde
# cp -r ~/tde/tde/main/common/admin .
# sed -i 's/LIB_KFILE/LIB_TDEFILE/' kxmleditor/kxmleditor/Makefile.am
# sed -i 's/LIB_KFILE/LIB_TDEFILE/' kxmleditor/part/Makefile.am
# sed -i 's/LIB_KFILE/LIB_TDEFILE/' kxmleditor/part/Makefile.in
# kxmleditor/Makefile.am: kxmleditor_LDFLAGS = $(all_libraries) $(KDE_RPATH)
$(LIB_QT) -lDCOP $(LIB_TDECORE) $(LIB_TDEUI) -ltdefx

Basically, I copied the libraries from kdiff3. I think the only one that was
missing was -lDCOP.  I'm just glad it builds. I'll test Francios patch too.

I have the diff if you want it, but just following the steps above work.
