qt 3.0.4 is alread ported to cygwin and the easiest way I can see seems to be
like the following:

1. check out the recent qt-3 source from the kde-cygwin cvs area.
2. Create a diff file between the original 3.1.0 and 3.0.4 sources and apply
this diff on top of the checked out sources. (Note: The original 3.0.4 sources
are already in the kde-cygwin cvs area)

BTW: If you have got this running, let us know.
