You build natively for Windows. I need to cross build.

I guess the best next step is to figure out how to get correct headers and DLLs
in place on my build server, regardless where they come from, so that we can
continue with the 4.5 release cycle.

I don't quite know if it's even possible to mix and match these, so I'm quite concerned
that I will open yet another can of worms.

I can send you the compile failures for QtWebKit if you are interested, Thiago
