Something needs clarifying here. Exactly who will need to keyword qt-4.8.6?

Just to get you started, here's my list from a system that upgraded 
smoothly:

$ grep qt /etc/portage/package.use
app-text/poppler                cairo qt4
dev-qt/qtcore                   qt3support
dev-qt/qtdeclarative            qt3support webkit
dev-qt/qtgui                    qt3support
dev-qt/qtopengl                 qt3support
dev-qt/qtsql                    mysql qt3support
dev-qt/qtwebkit                 icu

(Package.use is the only place where qt occurs.)
