year my goal is also live for the moment
but with eapi=4
i am going to modify the kde4 eclasses to fit trinity
they have really nice functions to hande dependencies even circular depnedencies

by the way i have alredy made x11-libs/qt-mt-3.3.8c ebuilds with
libiodbc support (so no dev-db/qt-unixODBC)
but on the todo for the qt3 ebuilds is to change the install location
to /usr and name the qt3 incarnations of the programms ..-qt3 (cmake
findQT3.cmake also checks for these)
so no QTDIR hackery.
qt3 has been droped from portage so no need to stay compatible to the
old design.

it would be greate if trinity can be installed allong kde4 without
conflict s/kwin/twin/g

so everything to /usr

but thats another story.
