multiple processes or "threads" to maximise bandwidth utilisation. The threads

at least one PR) received doesn't address all the issues that make it
suck.

which probably isn't supposed to be removed is misc/instant-workstation,
which had a dependency on audio/xamp (being removed), so I removed that
dependency and bumped PORTREVISION. All other ports are real dependents
upon Qt 1.x, including KDE 1.x stuff.
Code in bsd.kde.mk supporting these ports is also removed or adjusted.
Also, some adjustments made to accomodate Qt3/KDE3 ports, which will be
committed Real Soon Now (TM), pending repo-copies.
This commit made in impending view of Qt3/KDE3 entering ports tree.
