I tried this, and compared the list to the list of packages with files in
/usr/lib64/qt4/plugins/ since I had read that some people had had similar
problems with files there. app-i18n/uim-1.5.4-r1 was one of the packages and
when I re-emerged it with USE="-qt4" it appears that programs start again.
So thank you for fixing it.

However, i use this program to input japanese characters in some of the
documents I write. Is anyone aware of any other input systems which can
input japanese? Or will I still be able to input japanese into qt4 programs?
