If you change your PATH so that the qmake program of the Qt version you 
want is first in the PATH, and then run cmake it will build with that 
Qt. You can check the output of cmake to make sure which version of Qt 
is used.

Also, I just build stable-2.8 on ubuntu 10.04 with Qt 4.6.2 and it 
worked fine.
