Thank you Torsten.

I read the thread but the last email says "If we drop checking for Qt 
4..." and "If we come to a consensus on this..." so I don't know what 
the actuall conclusion is.

Currently, configure silently accepts my configuration (with Qt4) but 
then make fails.

If Qt4 support was actually dropped, I should file a bug report 
concerning the build system.  If Qt4 is still supported, I should file a 
bug report concerning the above issue with angleDelta.

Which one is it ?
