That is the KDE 3 version based code (the last released one).
Can be get also through the anonymous svn server.

Probably it could be made to compile, if the KDE libraries are installed and 
an older automake/autoconf is installed.

The KDE4 based Quanta addition to KDevelop is here:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/playground/devtools/quanta

It need KDE4 libraries of course (shouldn't be a problem on any distro), and 
KDevPlatform:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/kdevelop/kdevplatform

Some related code:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/playground/devtools/kdev-upload (the 
upload support from Quanta ported to Kdevelop)

https://projects.kde.org/projects/playground/devtools/kdev-xdebug

PHP plugins for KDevelop:
https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/kdevelop/plugins/kdev-php
https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/kdevelop/plugins/kdev-php-docs


With Quanta there are two ways to go:

1) continue with KDevelop integration. I'd suggest this. The KDevelop 
community is rather active, so they will help with the kdevplatform 
questions.

2) get the Quanta 3 source-base and port as-it-is to KDE4. 
Might give results faster, but with a codebase one have to maintain 
completely, including the full IDE/window management code.
