Please try again with kdesrc-build from current master. I just pushed
a patch (mentioned by Michael before) about not moving up the /usr
directory in multiple environment variables including
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH, what might have overwritten your manual setting.

Regarding your CMakeCache.txt: /usr/local is the default install
location set by cmake because you only set the source location in your
cmake call. I don't know more about the other values.
