My recommendation for best is to use what's installed by the system
libtool-ltdl(-devel). Without knowing why KDE packages are including a
local copy of ltdl in the first place, though, I don't know whether this
would be a change welcomed or refused by upstream. (If rejected, your
other suggestions would work as well.)
