pretty much what I figured. In order to get qt3.1 compiled, you have to:

cd /usr/X11R6/lib
mkdir ../old/
mv *Xft* ../old/
ldconfig

finish make/make install

cd /usr/X11R6/old
mv * ../lib/

ldconfig


for some reason, qt finds the Xft libs in /usr/X11R6/lib before /usr/lib.

Well, thats pretty much what I had to do anyway (and most gentoo users who
have gnome2.x and want to try kde3.1 (its really sweet btw)).
