If you make a list of which qt modules are needed for the GUI then
you can speed up the build time by configuring Qt with just those
modules. In addition, configuring with -fast helps. Finally, you
can also omit the tools like designer if you are simply running
applications rather than developing them (unless you need to use
the ability to load .ui files on the file with QFormBuilder).

Note that if you also want to use your Qt 4 build for KDE trunk
then you'll need to build all the modules.

Maybe it needs a qmake -recursive?

Cheers
