What is your target? 
For reference, on i386, the konqueror binary has 4079608 bytes, and the 
libkonqe.so.0.0.0 has 1481744 bytes.

You may try removing the -export-dynamic flag in the konqueror_LDFLAGS 
konq-embed/src/Makefile.am, it should shrink the binary size, but you'll 
not be able to use external plugins... which is not needed, most of the 
time.

About Qt:
be sure to build it -release -nodebug.
You may also use the flags -disable-opengl -disable-canvas -disable-sql 
-disable-workspace -disable-iconview -disable-table if you do not need 
those part of Qt. 

All in all you should be able to reduce the Qt library size to less than 
4Mb, on i386.
