The reviews I have heard concerning Redhat 7.0 will keep me from suggesting
it for any use.  Perhaps 7.1 will be better...

The only one of these distributions that currently supports KDE 2 out of
the box (from my knowledge) is Manrake 7.2  So it should be the key
platform.

For any other platform, there would also be a dependence on loading KDE 2.0
which, I'm sorry to say, is harder than installing an entire OS from
scratch.  I know this, it is why I slid out of the development for BT, it
was just too hard to get a stable environment.  It still appears to be
harder to upgrage KDE than to upgrade my entire OS!
