It sounds like you're saying that qtconfig must have phonon stuff 
available at compile time because it contains code that is not optional 
that allows you to configure phonon. If so, thank you for the 
explanation, however it turns out that is not correct.

Ok, I did that, (installed phonon-vlc), but qtconfig still tries to pull 
in gstreamer:

        Install misc/qt4-qtconfig
        Install databases/qt4-sql
        Install devel/qt4-qt3support
        Install multimedia/gstreamer-plugins
        Install multimedia/gstreamer
        Install textproc/flex
        Install multimedia/phonon-gstreamer
        Install x11/qt4-opengl

That would seem to be due to the following:

QT_COMPONENTS=  ... phonon phonon-gst

USE_GSTREAMER= yes

Removing those from the equation still allowed qtconfig to build (and 
work). The resulting qtconfig-qt4 had a tab for phonon, but text on that 
tab indicated that phonon was not available. So I then tried removing 
phonon from my system and rebuilding qtconfig. Same result.

So this argues pretty strongly for an OPTION in qtconfig to add phonon 
support via those 3 items above. Probably reasonable to default it to on 
in order to match the status quo.

While you're at it, it would be nice to have an OPTION to remove 
qt3support. That module took quite a while to build, and is completely 
useless for me (and I'd imagine most users as well).
