 If we change the port to install a file with hardcoded path in, then it will 
 no longer be prefix friendly - at present, you can install Qt to a different 
 location and everything will continue to function.
 
 If the third party applications you are downloading are ports, then things 
 will work as they should already, if not, please file pr's for the ports 
 respectively so they can be fixed.  
 
 If you are making ports out of them, then you should set it yourself by 
 adding: 
 
 USE_QT_VER=	3
 
 to set up all the necessary environment.  
 
 If you're just downloading and compiling third party applications for 
 yourself, then set $QTDIR yourself to /usr/X11R6, that is the way it's 
 designed to work, and setting this environment variable is more or less 
 mandatory when working with Qt. See:
 
 http://doc.trolltech.com/3.1/qmake-manual-2.html
 
 or the Qt documentation itself, for instance.
