Hackery? Me?

I assume you mean the ldconfig call and symlink that make install does 
(kde3/lib/kde3 isn't usually visible, at least where I've tested)?  Otherwise 
it's straightforward bindings (with a modified h file as a cheap way of doing 
a wrapper)..

There are a couple of ways to handle it: one would be to provide a switch in 
configure.py. The other would be to a) remove the %Include konsole_part.sip 
from the kparts-kde35*.diff, and b) add a condition in a couple places to 
detect if that's missing (easiest to test the kpartsmod.sip file). The *diff 
removal you'd have to do, but I can modify configure.py easily.

Let me know which you'd prefer - I prefer the latter, but neither is hard to 
do. But I don't think it'll work without the symlink/ldconfig.
