Hi Hazen:

That is excellent news that you have managed to confirm the issue.

Could you remove some of those failures (as needed to give you the
space) and try

Cmake 2.8.4, Qt 4.5.3, PLplot 5.9.6

and

Cmake 2.8.4, Qt 4.5.3, PLplot-SVN?

If both of those succeed it gives us a lot more confidence that it is the
Qt version alone that is the source of the Windows difficulty and not
anything to do with CMake version or PLplot version.

Where exactly (URL's please) are you getting your various Qt SDK
versions for Windows?  I would like to try some of these experiments
(using the MinGW version inside the Qt SDK) myself under wine.  I plan
to stick with CMake-2.8.4 (since any version of CMake before 2.8.3
does not work under wine due to a wine-specific issue) and PLplot-SVN
and simply vary the Qt version alone.  It is because of my planned
wine tests with CMake-2.8.4 and PLplot-SVN that I am interested in
your results for those with Qt 4.5.3.
