OK, checked out a few packages that use qt4.  Lyx will work with PATH 
and PKG_CONFIG_PATH adjusted, or by using a configure switch.  qjackctl 
seems to require a configure switch no matter what. Avahi and Poppler 
seem to be ok with just PKG_CONFIG_PATH.  kde4 only seems to need PATH 
set.  Setting QTDIR, QT4DIR, or LD_LIBRARY_PATH was unnecessary in all 
cases.

I did a full test build on kdelibs-4.0.1, all the rest are based purely 
on output from ./configure, so no guarantees that the resulting 
Makefiles are correct.
