In this specific instance we ended up in a black hole of static linking, I
had about 4-5 libs specified before I found some for which we don't ship
static stuff. Neither Scott nor I could figure out how to make Qt allow us
to statically link some thing and dynamically link others. That would have
also solved this specific issue. Is that possible?
