The only relatively simple way that has worked for me is to compile the 
.src.rpm from rawhide. Most of rawhide stuff compiles fine on RH8.0.

# cd /pub/linux/redhat/rawhide/i386/RedHat/RPMS
# #assuming you have a local mirror of rawhide
# rpmbuild --rebuild qt-3.1.1-4.src.rpm
# cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386
# rpm -ihv qt-3.1.1-4.i386.rpm --force
# #so that both qt 3.0.x and 3.1.x will end up being installed
# #alternatively, try rpm -Uhv to simply upgrade

You may also need to upgrade fontconfig. A rebuild of fontconfig may be needed 
to work with rh8's older xfree86.

Cheers, Kuba Ober
