gtk-qt-engine in fdo cvs appears to be defunct. SuSE continue to ship
and use it for gtk apps with the kde desktop. Your best bet is to
use the source from their latest OpenSuSE src rpm which will include
whatever patches they're applying to keep it working. I was never
able to get the fdo cvs to work with gtk 2.8, never mind new X versions.
