I have seen this happen before, with both versions 3.3.8 and 3.3.7.  
However, it hasn't happened to me in some time now, don't know if I've 
just been lucky or if something changed somewhere down the line to fix 
it.  Unfortunately, I don't recall the error I received and never 
really investigated it.

I mentioned the issue with kdelibs when I was first submitting the patch 
for kde-3.5.9.  In my testing, kdelibs can find qt just fine if it is 
installed in /usr.  You should not have to pass --with-qt-path.  The 
problem is when you install qt in /opt.  I'll have to retest again, but 
I don't think I was able to get kdelibs to compile 
using --with-qt-path=/opt/qt.

I thought QTDIR was always set in the book, and so would not cause any 
issues put into the default commands for kdelibs.
