It is possible to install both Qt3 and Qt4 devel packages.
But this is not only about co-installability. This is about build tools 
finding what they are looking for, and if qmake or moc or something else for 
Qt4 is needed, then it becomes much easier if these tools have specific 
names, and not the same as other tools which do something similar but not the 
same.
