Oh, well, what I did was get out of my X entirely to console mode,
then

pkg_delete 'qt*' 'kde*'

and then 

build it from ports.

This worked great, and my experience trying to do that sort of thing 
piecemeal has not been good.

Alternatively you could set an alternate prefix for the new QT and then 
try to get KDE to use the alternate prefix as its load library location 
but my record trying that sort of thing has not been good.
