The changes aren't to the API. In 4.2 CMake detection of Plasma and the 
library variables have changed. There's no longer a requirement for 
find_package(Plasma REQUIRED) and the target_link_libraries used to be 
${PLASMA_LIBS} where as it's ${KDE4_PLASMA_LIBS}.

I've compiled and used a number of 'older' plasmoids without issue once I 
updated the  CMakeLists.txt

Rob
