Wish I was kidding, but:

https://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/blobs/4.7/src/plugins/gfxdrivers/powervr/QWSWSEGL/pvrqwswsegl.c

Will look forward to those notes.

Makes sense, so I'm guessing this is like qtquick2-integration branch
that I've been playing with.

I think some discussion on how best to structure pkgconfig's in that
scenario and such like that would be good. First thing I ran into was
everyone using dependancies for pkgconfig(QtCore) (as an example)
causing choices between qt4 and qt5 :)

Could be good to have both in Trunk.
