As a side-effect which I'm interested in, TQT3 should be able to 
co-exist under "/usr" with any distribution-provided QT3 and/or QT4 version.
So, legacy QT3/KDE3 programs shipped with the distro will use the legacy 
QT3, KDE4 programs will use QT4, and TDE will use TQT3, and everyone 
should be happy :)

On my current TDE 3.5.13 build, it looks like the QT 3.3.8.D, that I've 
packaged as an update to the distro-provided QT 3.3.8.B, makes some 
legacy QT3 programs crash, but I do not know why.
As I understood, QT 3.4.0 for future TDE R14 will officially break 
compatibility with QT 3.3.8, so having both QT3.3.8.B and TQT 3.4.0 at 
the same time is mandatory for me.
