Please consider to pre-approve the unblock package qt4-x11

Hi RT! The purpose of this mail is to ask for pre-approval of a new upload of
qt4-x11 in order to solve RC bug #669278.

Short story: this bug is caused by the circular dependency between qdbus and
libqt4-dbus. It was solved by:

- adding libqtdbus4 [0] to hold the stuff that libqt4-dbus will normally
  provide.
- make libqt4-dbus depend on qdbus and libqtdbus4.
- the symbols file of libqtdbus4 depends on libqt4-dbus to ensure that a
  dependency on libqt4-dbus ensures qdbus is installed, also on rebuilt
  packages. 

Long story: please take a look at [1].

I am also attaching the proposed debdiff.

[0] Yes, this will need to go trough NEW.
