I've modified the gitian build so that it builds against Qt 4.6
instead of Qt 4.8 in this pull request:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/4094
A test build of master with that pulls gitian descriptor is available:
https://download.visucore.com/bitcoin/linux-4765b8c-gitian-2d48b96.tar.gz
https://download.visucore.com/bitcoin/linux-4765b8c-gitian-2d48b96.tar.gz.sig
These bitcoin-qt executables *should* work on Debian Squeeze / Tails
Linux. Let me know if it is the case.

Hey Wladimir,
Thanks for building this binary. The initial problem with Qt was
resolved, and I was able to load the GUI that chooses my datadir. After
choosing the default datadir, however, it segfaulted.
The segfault came after the usual message that I get when running
Bitcoin Core in Tails, which is the "sendto: Operation not permitted"
message since Core will not be able to connect to the internet without
going through Tails' Tor SOCKS proxy. When I specify the SOCKS proxy
through the command-line, I get a brief flash of the GUI before it
segfaults again.
The "Bus::open" and "IBusInputContext::createInputContext" messages are
atypical and might be related to the segfault.
Sample terminal output for latest Tails (0.23):
amnesia@amnesia:~/linux-4765b8c-gitian-2d48b96/32$ ./bitcoin-qt
Bus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address.
IBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon
sendto: Operation not permitted
Segmentation fault
amnesia@amnesia:~/linux-4765b8c-gitian-2d48b96/32$ ./bitcoin-qt
Segmentation fault
amnesia@amnesia:~/linux-4765b8c-gitian-2d48b96/32$ ./bitcoin-qt -proxy=127.0.0.1:9050
Segmentation fault

Can you get a traceback?

I've fixed the issue; at least on Debian 6 - which is a lot more
conductive to development than tails :-). See
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/4094 for the gory details. New
test build available:
https://download.visucore.com/bitcoin/linux-gitian-3cbabfa.tar.gz
(sigs: https://download.visucore.com/bitcoin/linux-gitian-3cbabfa.tar.gz.sig
)

Nice work! I can confirm that this dev binary runs smoothly in the
latest version of Tails, v1.0. Screenshot proof here [1]. When this is
incorporated into the next release of Bitcoin Core, will this make the
usual Linux binary compatible, or will there be a special binary just
for systems running the older Qt?

The normal binary will be compatible.
At some point we may add a binary that is linked to Qt 5.x as well for
newer distributions, but compatibility is most important.
