There are a few ways none of which is straightforward:

1- Stick with the old Gentoo so that you still have qt3. But you won't
get any security etc updates/bugfixes.

2- Build qt3 yourself. Since you are using Gentoo, you should be
familiar with building/compiling stuff. This appears to be the easiest
solution among others.

3- Switch to a different distro which didn't drop qt3. There are still
plenty of them.

4- Port muse to qt4. This will also benefit other users.

5- Convince the developers to port to qt4 soon. Bribe might work.

Alternatively you can stop using muse. But since muse is so cool this
is not possible, is it?
