This is a common problem, not just with CMake. I'm wondering if there's any real need for cmake-gui to be on the PATH at all, since it will usually be invoked by a desktop or menu icon. At the moment though, it is in the same directory as the cmake and ccmake executables which have a much stronger case for being on the PATH. There's a reasonable argument that cmake-gui should be in a different directory, then it wouldn't be an issue if shared Qt libs were used rather than static. I'll bring this up on the developer mailing list and see what discussions yield.
