this might do it:
./configure  --with-qt-dir=/usr/share/qt4 --enable-optimization=-O3
--prefix=/usr/local --with-version-suffix=1.5.0b1

Read the INSTALL to get details on how to configure the flags for your purposes.
Or you may wish to do this in a chroot to be sure it behaves!

when I installed qt4, it went perfectly.
