Hm.

Andreas, Benjamin: Could this be related to synchronous XMLHttp where we currently have problems with?

I spent a lot of time today trying to make a small, reproducible example that 
behaves differently on Mac/*nix versus Windows.  But my problem is that in my 
large application in which the problem originally manifested, I'm using an 
awful lot of 3rd-party JavaScript code (jsMath).  That code does tons of stuff 
that I'm not totally aware of, which may have a big impact on my ability to 
reduce the bug to something I can reproduce.

I tried to make a simple Qt app that just creates a QWebView and then in it 
runs some JavaScript code that tries to make an XMLHttpRequest to the local 
filesystem; this is what was behaving differently in my large application.  
However, I must be doing something wrong because now I can't get it to succeed 
on any platform.  Perhaps jsMath was doing some helpful setup of the JavaScript 
engine/space that I don't know about that was enabling this to work on some 
platforms.

I'm sorry that I don't have time to continue to plug away at this.  I guess it 
could be a jsMath bug, because jsMath makes a lot of queries about what browser 
it's running in, to try to be cross-platform; it may not expect whatever 
answers it's getting from a QWebView, and thus be making bad decisions.

If XMLHttpRequest began behaving the same on all platforms, that
would be much better.  Is this a known bug or should I try to create
an example I can submit?
It is definitively worth creating an example showing the problem of XMLHttpRequest.

I have added Markus in CC, he is the more able to solve networking issues.
