Nobody cautioned you yet in this thread.  Delete the source tree and
untar a fresh copy before re-setting the environment and re-running
configure.  Otherwise, same old mistakes just happen again and again.

I did this recompile myself a few weeks ago on Scientific Linux and I
ended up setting QTDIR and QTHOME in the environment.  That fixed it.

Also, you should only have the devel package for one version of QT at
a time.  So after putting in the qt4 devel thing, make sure  you have
no qt3 devel stuff left.
