well the file we actually want is here:

-rw-r--r--  1 root  users  9379840 Jan  3 15:44
/usr/pkgsrc/x11/qt2-libs/work/qt-2.3.1/lib/libqt.a

fixing the line that fails to this

(paul@green.paulbeard.org)-(03:51 PM / Thu Jan  3)
[/usr/pkgsrc/x11/qt2-libs]:: sudo /usr/pkg/bin/libtool install -c -o root -g
wheel -m 444 /usr/pkgsrc/x11/qt2-libs/work/qt-2.3.1/lib/libqt.a
/usr/X11R6/qt2/lib install -c -o root -g wheel -m 444
/usr/pkgsrc/x11/qt2-libs/work/qt-2.3.1/lib/libqt.a
/usr/X11R6/qt2/lib/libqt.a
ranlib /usr/X11R6/qt2/lib/libqt.a
chmod 644 /usr/X11R6/qt2/lib/libqt.a

works. But if it will work in the larger context is anyone's guess.
