The build-time requirement doesn't influence the run-time requirement of Qt.
You can compile against 4.6.3 and then run against 4.6.0.
So requiring 4.6.3 to compile will NOT get your bug solved.
You need to convince your distro to upgrade. And all KDE has to do is to say
that distros should upgrade.
And that should go without saying that distros should always upgrade. And they
do.
So what are you complaining about?
Bug reported -> ceck
Bug fixed -> check
Distros upgrading -> check
