Comment (by andy@…):

 I don't need qt3 itself, but qt3 is a prerequisite for xxdiff -- a neat
 tool for graphically showing diffs and merging over an X11 connection.

 The problem was that qt3 was expecting to find all of the freetype headers
 in /opt/include/freetype2/, when in the latest freetype port they are in
 /opt/include/freetype2/freetype/.  Without hacking through the compilation
 scripts, I found an effective kluge:

 {{{
 cd /opt/include/freetype2
 sudo ln -s freetype/*.h .
 }}}

 This allows qt3 to compile, and I've confirmed xxdiff works.
