Got it fixed, problem is QT runs from the X client side so it doesn't matter where you export the display to. What I eventually ended up doing was recompiling qt with the -no-xft switch to disable the FreeType2 font atialiasing support. This solved my fonts not being rendered in qt apps. Frontend runs on a different box so I think I got my 5 minutes out of my 4 days of mucking with QT :P
