It's merging season for Ubuntu.  The current diff in Qt 4 is this
patch
 http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/tmp/kubuntu_01_load_ssl.diff
which closes 
 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/155784

Qt 3 has some more changes

  * Merge with Debian, remaining changes:
   - No firebird/ibase build (remove build-dep, control entry, ibase
  ./configure option), firebird is not in Ubuntu main
   - install qtrc (change rules, qtrc file) and qt_plugins_3.3rc
   - add /etc/ to libqt3-mt and install qtrc qt_plugins_3.3rc
   - Add kubuntu_04_xinerama.dpatch from
  http://ktown.kde.org/~seli/xinerama/
   - Add kubuntu_06_fglrx_0_size_screen.dpatch work around fglrx
  reporting a 0 size screen.
     Closes
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt-x11-free/+bug/81686
   - Add kubuntu_07_font_default_subst.dpatch from Dirk Muller,
     should fix rendering of CKJ and other characters
  * Add kubuntu_05_gcc_hidden_visibility.dpatch from
    http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=13069&action=view
    on http://bugs.kde.org/109386, I am promised GCC won't break
  things this time

Patches at http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/tmp/qt3/ along with
qt_plugins_3.3rc qtrc which set a nice theme in the corner case that
users have KDE bits installed but are running Qt only apps.

The visibility patch isn't well tested except for the last times where
I used it and it added a number of very random bugs, I'm promised that
with GCC 4.2 it'll work better but I'm remaining skeptical for now.
