Hi

I compiled Qt 5.0.1 for x86_64 with GCC 4.8 seh-enabled. Everything looks
fine here (auto-tests of framework all pass successfully except some
irrelevant or unsupported tests.)

For those who are interested, I released my Qt compiles
here<http://sourceforge.net/p/eboqt/wiki/Home/>

My PC is compiling Qt fo x86 with a dwarf4-enabled MinGW distro right now.
I'll upload it when completed. I can't see any reason to avoid using DWARF
on windows, except crashes on exceptions from outside; which I have no idea
when and why should happen. May be an exception thrown from any third-party
library (say mysqlcliend) which is not compiled with dwarf...

Cheers
