I think I know the answer, but I'll throw this out there... If I compile a program as a normal user, with the correct environment variables (eg for KDE3: QTDIR, KDEDIR and KDEDIRS) when I switch to root to run checkinstall, there's no need for me to re-create those env variables as root, is there? I'm thinking not, since once the ./configure is done, the env variables aren't looked at any more. At least that's my understanding of the process (which oftentimes proves to be wrong ;-( ).
