Actually at this point I'm trying to figure out what's so dagon 'dynamic' 
about it.  I have the feeling part of the problem with the UIC error caused 
by the QT/KDE missmatch is the result of binding something in a .la file that 
could be specified by an environment variable at load time.  I haven't seen 
other programms behave in that manner. I'm not sure that part of my broken 
install didn't involve something pointing to a previous KDEDIR.  I kind of 
wish I had spent more time trying to untangle the mess rather than rm -rf 
gordion-knot.  Then again I have to make some kind fo progress toward 
actually producing new code, and I have a _lot_ to learn.

I know this stuff can appear random and capricious, but computers are not 
women. (How's that for an audience check?)  They are deterministic, with very 
rare exceptions.  Believe it or not, my intended project - which I have 
started about 50 times in the past 5 day - is directed toward investigating 
just such issues.
