If I use otool -L to look at QtCore, it clearly shows that the
'install' version does not have an absolute path name (see the first
line output after the otool command below).
Also, if you hard code the path in the framework, then macdeployqt
does not work when asked to embed the frameworks (it searches for
frameworks beginning with 'Qt').
Why would you want different behavior for the mobility frameworks from
the standard Qt 4.6.3 frameworks like QtCore?
[~/Developer/Qt/qt-mobility] > otool -L
