You should use pkg-config instead of hardcore. You can check in  
x11-toolkits/pango for example.

----------------------------------
GLIB2_CFLAGS=	`pkg-config glib-2.0 --cflags`

[...]

CONFIGURE_ENV=		CPPFLAGS="-I${LOCALBASE}/include/freetype2 \
				${GLIB2_CFLAGS} -I${LOCALBASE}/include" \
			LDFLAGS="-L${LOCALBASE}/lib"
----------------------------------

You can do same with --libs for below in the 'LIBS +=' part. I am surpised  
for QT to not use pkg-config or something to allow QT to get buildable  
without have someone to add hack. Maybe, you should report to QT  
bugtracker or something. Or maybe there is something missing.

As for the rest other than this, I have no idea for QT problem.
