It turns out that I cannot emerge qt-3.3.8-r4 or mozilla-firefox-2.0.0.8 if i did not compile fontconfig with the xml useflag set. Otherwise I get the following error: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -o nsBrowserApp.o -c -fvisibility=hidden -DAB_CD=en-US -DMOZILLA_INTERNAL_API -DOSTYPE=\"Linux2.6\" -DOSARCH=\"Linux\"
