I remember seeing this elsewhere. It might be a Qt bug.

There's no QBluetoothServiceInfo in there. The only reference in the source 
code is

     serial_port->socket = new 
QBluetoothSocket(QBluetoothServiceInfo::RfcommProtocol);

I don't remember the Bluetooth code implementation anymore (even though I 
mentored the student who wrote it). Is the code in qtserialbluetooth.cpp 
running in an auxiliary thread, started by libdc?

I've attached a blind attempt at fixing this. I have no idea if it helps in any 
way. It may make things even worse.

Can you run with QT_FATAL_WARNINGS=1 and then give me the backtrace of that 
QObject::connect warning? (this requires that Qt print no other warnings 
before this one) My guess is that this is the emission of the 
QBluetoothServiceDiscoveryAgent::serviceDiscovered signal starting at 
QBluetoothServiceDiscoveryAgentPrivate::performMinimalServiceDiscovery.
