Going along with what Alan said. qt3support does not use Qt 3 at all. It just puts something like a Qt 3-compatible API into Qt 4, to make porting Qt 3 to Qt 4 apps easier. It is largely insignifcant to you (since it's not pulling in qt3 packages). If you have any packages that require this USE flag, their ebuild will require this USE flag. So disable it, emerge --deep --newuse world and see if it complains. If it does, re-enable and continue life with qt3support as if nothing ever happened. :)
