Of course not -- but as soon as you take GPLed code from KDE and include
it in your code, you agree with that it is OK that KDE is GPLed and
that there is no licencing problem.
I would never include code in my project where I might get in trouble
because the licence of that code is wrong.
And a lot of GNOME and Debian folk has argued that KDE has the wrong licence
because of it's linking against Qt.
