I'd stick with the latest stable version of GCC regardless what I upload
;-). Before long, I'll get you motivated to use GCC 4.8 or Clang 3.2, and
you'd run into an obscure problem due to some unexpected instability or bug.
Especially with GCC 4.7, which is currently SVN trunk which means full-blown
development.

Given this problem, I would stick with my gcc-4.6.2-2 build or equivalent.
It builds Qt 4.7 (current git) without problem, and any 4.7 release should
work as well. Remeber to configure Qt 4.7 with -phonon (if you need it) and
definitely "-qt-style-windowsxp -qt-style-windowsvista". These were fixed
(and enabled by default for mingw-w64) in 4.8.
Qt 4.8 is still in beta status, and some of my attempts to build it have
failed. (this is one of them, but unrelated to Qt itself I *think*).
This is all my opinion of course ;-)

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a
definitive record of customers, application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. Business sense. IT sense. Common sense.
