Hi Michael,

Apologies if what I'm about to suggest you've already tried.


If I was at work, with a nice fast local network connection to a nice fast SVN 
server and a nice graphical interface to my working copy (SmartSVN), and given 
that I know little of the detail of the problem, I'd probably tackle this by 
brute force by:

1. checking out the head of the no_more_qt3_redux branch
2. merging all the changesets on that branch on to my local copy (this might 
take a long time over the internet). All the commits on the branch should then 
appear as local changes in my working copy

3. turning qt3 support back on
4. reverting local changes (using inspired guesswork) until the thing leapt 
back into life
5. undo reverts, do more selective reverts to narrow down the offending code as 
much as poss
6. fix, update, commit leftover changes


I'm guessing you may already tried something along these lines. I might try it 
myself this evening, see if it gets me anywhere. It can do no harm anyway.


Cheers,

Ian.
