Somehow I couldn't manage to do this. There was this problem with one 
particular component (don't remember which, it was posted in one thread on 
this mailing list earlier this month) and there was a quickfix solution 
to it which said that it could be built manually in $PORTAGE_TMPDIR. I 
tried it with all combinations of flags but I couldn't get it to work. 
Ultimately I had to rebuild entire xfree with -march=i686 -O3 
-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe.

I had almost forgotten that qt doesn't honor make.conf and I went ahead 
and built it and to my consternation saw it was using measly -O2 (and no 
architecture-specific) flags. I think I'll just rebuild qt after I am done 
with kde entirely.

Will it be necessary for me to recompile KDE if I recompile qt with these 
newer flags? I shouldn't think so because I don't see any 
qt-statically-linked components in KDE.
