**WARNING**
  DANGER!  DANGER, WILL ROBINSON!    :-)

Well, I'm in rather unfamiliar territory with Unix; but since no one
  else has responded to the question yet, I'll give it a go, albeit with
  an old work-around method...

The following is from pre- osX user level testing procedures, and I
  don't know if this kind of thing will work with Unix/Sys osX, so
  please just read for consideration/discussion only.

-- navigate in the Finder on your system disk to [System > Library]
  and find the QT & Java folders.
-- copy them to a safe/protected location.
-- proceed with QT v7 install (overwrite old QT in System).
-- restart.
-- later, as the need arises, switch QT versions and restart, moving
  those component folders back and forth; restart each time.

Like I said, it worked with pre- osX; certainly, those Unix-savvy
  people here will correct this pronto if it's improper.

Regards,
Russ Preston
