That is correct. You can either install qt4-mac (if you want the latest stable version) or qt4-mac-devel (if you want a less-well-tested development version); you cannot install both. That is what the naming convention of using the suffix "-devel" in a port name means.

Except that I see now that qt4-mac-devel was marked as replaced_by qt4-mac in r99488 and r99527, at which point the qt4-mac port needed to have been modified to remove the declared conflict with qt4-mac-devel.
