  okay and to finish to nail the problem down:

18:16      MoDaX | libqt-mt is not built with -O2!!
18:16 mukidohime | Sweet zombie jesus!
18:16 mukidohime | Whose idea was that?
18:16      MoDaX | that's why it exposes stat64 and friends
18:17      MoDaX | libs built with -O2 does not
18:17      MoDaX | do not*
18:17 mukidohime | So *that's* why only Qt was affected...

  Which means that now I'm not only in favour to manually add the symbols to
Qt3, but in fact it's also The Right Thing to do, Qt people, please sort out
_your_ mess :)
