See if yours looks something like this:

[ebuild   R   ] x11-libs/qt-4.3.2-r1  USE="cups dbus gif jpeg opengl png 
qt3support sqlite ssl tiff zlib -accessibility -debug -doc -examples 
-firebird -glib -mng -mysql -nas -nis -odbc -pch -postgres -sqlite3 
-xinerama" INPUT_DEVICES="-wacom" 0 kB

You can get that by doing a emerge -pv qt.  Notice the USE flag gif?  If 
yours is not there or it has a minus sign in front, you need to add it 
to make.conf and do a emerge -uvDN world to update all the needed 
packages to support the flag change.  You may also want to check the 
other flags there to.  jpeg, png and tiff just in case.

You may also want to check the older qt to and make sure of the flags it 
has in use. 

Hope that helps.
