Actually it should be quite simple & straightforward: please check out
the attached diff. Worked for me on my EL5 box.

The future releases are not going to work, unless I provide a working
patch since they already switched to QT4.3 and there is no way to turn
back.

Agreed.

The other problem is that EL5 just does not support my laptop out of the
box, because the necessary drivers are only available in 2.6.24+ kernel
series (and are not going to be backported). Of course I could recompile
the kernel manually every time a security issue pops up, but that really
misses the point of using EL. Go Ubuntu :(

Still happily using EL for home & work desktops and servers, of course.
