I have just masked x11-libs/qt-3* and its reverse dependencies, as
well as the qt3 useflag in the portage tree. Users/maintainers of the
kde-sunset overlay may want to reverse these changes locally or in the
overlay. You can easily grab the list of masked packages/ebuilds from
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask as it is currently at the top of
this file. You would also need to add "-qt3" to your
/etc/portage/profile/use.mask or profiles/use.mask in the overlay. (At
least, I think it should be overridable in the overlay, but I'm not
100% sure. I am sure you can do it locally.)
Cheers,

I fear it's not possible. I've just added -qt3 to my local copy of
kde-sunset/profiles/use.mask and emerge -p poppler still lists "(-qt3)"
among the USE flags.
According to zmedico on IRC, that's a feature, not a bug. So in our
case, users have to do this:
