Is there any way that it could Replace kdelibs3 rather than conflicting with
it?

Hmm, odd...I must have made a typo or something. It is there, but something
weird is going on there as well; it is impossible to install metapackages
such as kde-core individually when woody kde is installed and unstable is
available:
foo:~# apt-get install kde-core
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
kde-core: Depends: kdelibs but it is not going to be installed
E: Sorry, broken packages
I'm not too surprised that the resolver isn't able to find the optimal
solution for the dist-upgrade, but I'm surprised that it couldn't find a way
to install kde-core at all. I'm attaching debug output for deity@lists.

It might help a lot if you can convert some of those Conflicts into
Replaces.
