libDCOP.so only requires libqt; it would probably be quite feasible to build 
it against Qt4 with a little bit of porting work and voila: dcop in qt4.

or one might even be able to use dcop.c:

http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/3.5/kdelibs/dcop/dcopc.c?view=log

so you should be able to do this without any qt3, let alone kde3.
