I feared something like that.

Actually, it would be better to address this problem the other way
round: remove all GUI dependencies from the core program, put it into a
separate library, and then build the GUI (or several different GUIs,
including GTK+ or Motif) on top of that.

Currently, the program is intertwined with Qt, however. E.g. we're using
the QSettings class for saving preferences and QDomDocument for handling
project files, while it were much better to use a generic XML library
like libxml2 instead (for either purpose).
