There is no /tmp/portage directory. The missing libqt-mt.la file resides in /usr/qt/3/lib/ o my system... JC
I meant there is no /var/tmp/portage/qt-3.3.0/image on my system. Just a /var/tmp/portage/qt-3.3.0/temp
creating a symbolic link to /usr/qt/3/lib/libqt-mt.la in /var/tmp/portage/qt-3.3.0 solved the problem for me.
