Hm... a very similiar qt-4.3.0 problem to yours:

(It's in Polish, but who cares?)
As I understand they suggest trying with =sys-devel/binutils-2.17.50.0.17.

I checked out the link and decided to emerge the mentioned package. It was masked by keyword so I unmasked it. Then ran 'emerge =x11-libs/qt-4.3.0-r2' again. It failed with the same error. Later today I'm going to search Gentoo and Google Linux on this issue.

voxiac Thanks for the help. Someday this too will be resolved...

You can resolve in this way(unmask binutils-2.17.50.0.17) :

echo 'sys-devel/binutils *' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
emerge binutils
