 * Just working on a port that requires qt-1.41 or greater...have qt-1.40
 * installed right now, and looking at ldconfig -r just shows lib-qt.1, as
 * elf truncates off the .40/.41 ...
 * 
 * How would one do the LIB_DEPENDS to know the difference?

Generally speaking, if it's indeed the case that there is a clear need
to distinguish different versions, the library ports should be fixed
to actually install things with different major version numbers.
(Remember, libqt.so.1.40 and libqt.so.1.41 are both libqt.so.1 in ELF.
We didn't take away the minor version from LIB_DEPENDS for no reason.)

As for the specific case of qt, you should just define USE_QT in your
Makefile.  (Didn't I tell you this before?)
