I do seem to recall that /Library/Frameworks/QTCore.framework is used by other 
things on my Mac system, although I don't remember which. I don't even know 
whether it was installed as part of Apple's distribution of OS X 10.8.4 or not.

Moreoever, through macports I have a separate installation, namely, the port 
qt4-mac @4.8.5_0, whose components were installed automatically (by some other 
port) in /opt/local/bin, /opt/local/include/Qt, /opt/local/share/qt4, etc. In 
principle, these should not interfere with Qt installed in /Library -- they 
would be known, in effect, only to other macports ports -- but I mention this 
here just in case.

I looked at qt-project.org to see about updating QTCore.framework, but the 
current version is Qt 5.1, not 4.8.5. What should I do here?
