You could try a symlink, or you could try setting the KDEDIR environment 
variable that was mentioned in the error message in you original 
posting.
I would tend to favour the environment variable option, because a 
symlink may have unexpected effects on other apps (assuming you 
actually have a "real" /usr/share directory). You may be able to 
alleviate this problem by using two more specific symlinks, one for 
each file, but this could get messy.
So, if I were you, what I would do is add the following line to the file 
'/etc/profile'

export KDEDIR=/mnt/hda/opt/QtPalmtop

This will globally set up the KDEDIR enviroment variable, but only after 
your next reboot. Simply enter the above line as a command in a console 
to set the environment variable for your currently running session.
You can see if it worked by typing
# set | more
this will produce a list of all your environment settings. You may have 
to start konqueror from the console where you enter the 'export' 
command (by typing 'konqueror &').

If you are determined to use a symlink, you can try this
# ln -s /mnt/hda/opt/QtPalmtop/share /usr/share
This will probably fail, unless you do not already have a '/usr/share' 
directory. If it does fail for this reason, you could try a pair of 
symlinks, one for each file:
# ln -s /mnt/hda/opt/QtPalmtop/share/apps/khtml/css/html4.css 
/usr/share/apps/khtml/css/html4.css
# ln -s /mnt/hda/opt/QtPalmtop/share/config/charsets 
/usr/share/config/charsets
You may need to create some directories under '/usr/share'  in order for 
this to work:
# mkdir /usr/share/apps
# mkdir /usr/share/apps/khtml
# mkdir /usr/share/apps/khtml/css
# mkdir /usr/share/config

I hope all this helps
