Just to simplify the test and also confirm we have the right example please
run the following (with -DBUILD_TEST=ON):

make x26c qt

examples/c/x26c -dev tiffqt -o test.tiff -fam

For that simplified test, I cannot confirm the issue on Debian stable with
downloaded Qt-4.6.1.  The example finishes almost instantly and gives good
looking results with "display test.tiff.1" and "display test.tiff.2". I just
checked http://qt.nokia.com/downloads, and I am actually behind the latest
version which is 4.6.2.  I suggest you try that to see if the issue
disappears.

Note, there is nothing particularly special about example 26 (which repeats
the first page of example 4 in various languages) other than the Cyrillic
fonts that it uses to render the Russian page of the example.  It is
possible you have some issue with your Cyrillic fonts, and Qt-4.6.2 might
handle that in a much smoother way than your much older system version of Qt
(4.5.1).  Anyhow, the first thing to do is to try the latest Qt.

Note, once you have downloaded and unpacked Qt-4.6.2, then all you have to
do is put the 4.6.2 version of qmake on your PATH, and our build system
should do the rest.  Here is my current qmake version string:

softw...@raven> qmake --version
QMake version 2.01a
Using Qt version 4.6.1 in /home/software/qtsdk-2010.01/qt/lib
