They are used (in fact the kde support was fixed only recently by
Kevin).

I try to minitor changes in the OLPC branches and use what makes sense
in fedora. There is a bug opened for update to 0.8.4, it is on my radar,
but I'll gladly accept patches. I am in th eprocess of verifying that
all the issues fixed by patches in 0.8.3 in fedora are indeed fixed
in 0.8.4 upstream.

There are some patches, especially since Kevin fixed (tough it is not
definitive) the kde plugin.
