Thank you everyone!
I have now discovered that my problem was that I still had some monolithic kde
packages hanging around alongside the metapackages (e.g. kdeedu instead of
kdeedu-meta). I think I'd been unmerging them one at a time and didn't get
around to finishing the job. Now that I have done so emerge -u world seems
to be catching the kde updates the way it should.
