If you're on stable, you'll need to keyword qt-4.8.6 in its entirety.
You can't mix and match versions, and 4.8.6 is the only one that
supports multilib.
Something needs clarifying
Given that the emul-linux-x86 package sets are now deprecated and we can now
with USE=abi_x86_32 emerge our own 32bit libraries where needed, is it now
easier to move from a no-multilib to a multilib environment, or will it still
