Cannot Compile KMailCool 1.6.2

[Robert Tilley <tilleyrw@cfl.rr.com>]

When I run ./configure --prefix=$KDEDIR && make install, a complaint about my 
version of Qt is spit back.

I have the following qt:

oracle@tillarium:~/kmailcool$ dpkg -l | grep libqt3
ii  libqt3         3.1.1+cvs.2002 Qt GUI Library (runtime files)
ii  libqt3-dev     3.1.1+cvs.2002 Qt GUI development files
ii  libqt3-helper  3.1.1+cvs.2002 Some helper libraries for qt-tools
ii  libqt3-mt      3.1.1+cvs.2002 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime version)
ii  libqt3-mt-mysq 3.1.1+cvs.2002 Mysql database plugin for Qt3 (Threaded)
ii  libqt3-mt-odbc 3.1.1+cvs.2002 ODBC plugin for Qt3 (Threaded)
ii  libqt3-mysql   3.1.1+cvs.2002 Mysql database plugin for Qt3
ii  libqt3-odbc    3.1.1+cvs.2002 ODBC plugin for Qt3

and the complaint is:

checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.1 (20021021)) (library qt-mt) 
not found. Please check your installation!
For more details about this problem, look at the end of config.log.
Make sure that you have compiled Qt with thread support!

I have libqt3-mt to handle the thread support.  Do I need to explicitly 
compile qt for my machine with the thread support enabled?
