That is correct.
While I was writing and QT was recompiling I did a separate manual configure 
of QT using the basic configure string from the ebuild, sans any USE optional 
flags. It picked up the mysql client library, but not the header files (the 
mysql USE flag has to add another include path, /usr/include/mysql).
So I imagine you are correct again, mysql would need to be in USE as well.
