hmm I cant reproduce it here. Could you comment out the LDFLAGS section on your /etc/make.conf and try again?
Those are very safe LDFLAGS. I'd rather suggest disabling ccache first.
Away for the weekend, but I'll try these suggestions when I return. Thanks for the insights.
Disabling ccache did the trick. For what it's worth, when I tried building after disabling ccache, I was browsing on the internet using Firefox and after about 10 minutes, everything froze (to my knowledge, I was not using any KDE or QT apps at the time---I was using xfce). After rebooting, I stayed in console mode and qt-webkit built successfully and all was well.
