I had to emerge -e my system a little while back and discovered that
this ebuild seemed to be self-destructing while linking tiblitconf.o .
It did build correctly on my system as of around 2-3 years ago.
A representative selection from the log:

 The specific snippet of code:

Forcing the --no-as-needed linker switch for this ebuild in an attempt at a 
quick-
and-dirty fix did not appear to work, but I may have been doing it wrong.

I've traced all the missing symbols to two 
libraries--/usr/qt/3/lib64/libqt-mt.so.3 and 
/usr/kde/3.5/lib64/libkdecore.so.4--and I assume the makefile needs to be 
patched,
but I have no idea how to do it. I'm primarily a Java programmer, and am 
completely
unfamiliar with both makefile syntax and KDE3's peculiar requirements.

Help?
