If I install chromium first, I get the following messages when I try
to install kde-meta:
    The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
    #required by dev-db/virtuoso-server-6.1.4-r1, required by
    dev-libs/soprano-2.7.6[virtuoso], required by

    =dev-libs/libxml2-2.8.0_rc1 -icu

You'll note that in this case there is nothing to suggest simply
enabling icu for qt-webkit.

If I emerge kde-meta first then I get the following when I try to
emerge chromium:
    The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:
    #required by www-client/chromium-20.0.1132.43, required by
chromium (argument)
    =dev-libs/libxml2-2.8.0_rc1 icu

Then if I set the icu use flag on libxml2 it works.  Apparently it
doesn't realize that I'm about to break qt-webkit.  Portage doesn't
check use dependencies on existing packages when you go to rebuild
something?

I hope that helps...
