configure -no-opengl or whatever that option is called will work here, but I 
don't know if you want to leave openGL support out...

You can also build KDE with thread support enabled, it seems perfectly 
possible by now. I really think we should enable it by default on KDE 3, so 
even if we don't use it cases like this work ok. OTOH, what would be the 
effect of having a MT-Qt linking against a non-MT openGL? Same as here, or is 
that way still possible?

Don't think so, because a threaded Qt will affect everything compiled against 
non-threaded Qt and thus break. I think Qt should rather turn off openGL 
support in this case (if it doesn't already do).
