I think it's the same problem I reported with beta2: qmake, for whatever
reason, insists on including /usr/X11R6/lib in the list of explicit
includes.  Under slackware, /usr/X11R6/lib is a symbolic link to
/usr/lib.  So, in the makefile I find:

LIBS          = $(SUBLIBS)  -L/usr/lib/qt/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib
-L/mnt/sda2/dvw/tmp/2.0.0-beta3/kst/build/lib
-L/mnt/sda2/dvw/tmp/2.0.0-beta3/kst/build/plugin -lkst -lkstmath
-lkstwidgets -lkstapp -lQtTest -L/usr/lib/qt/lib -pthread -pthread
-lQtSvg -L/usr/X11R6/lib -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread
-pthread -pthread -pthread -lQt3Support -lQtSql -pthread -pthread
-pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread
-pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread
-pthread -pthread -lQtXml -pthread -pthread -lQtOpenGL -pthread -pthread
-pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -pthread -lQtGui -pthread
-lpng -lfreetype -lgobject-2.0 -lSM -lICE -pthread -pthread -lXrender
-lfontconfig -lXext -lX11 -lQtNetwork -pthread -pthread -lQtCore -lz -lm
-pthread -lgthread-2.0 -lrt -lglib-2.0 -ldl -lGLU -lGL -lpthread

which tells gcc to look in /usr/X11R6/lib (ie. /usr/lib) for libraries
before looking in the build directory, ie.
/mnt/sda2/dvw/tmp/2.0.0-beta3/kst/build/lib .  As a consequence, the
kst1 libraries, installed in /usr/lib are used in preference to the
libraries in the build directory.

One solution might be to move the build directory -L's to the front of
LIBS.  I would argue a better solution would be to convince qmake not to
explicitly add library paths to the command line for libraries which are
already in the default ld search path.

Cheers,
