I don't mind at all; feel free to edit "my" qt packaging - people/chrsmrtn 
is just a convenient place. I don't mean to control it or anything.

As for the issue of the buildkey, sarge's Qt shipped with:

i686 Linux g++-3.* full-config

Packages based on the people/chrsmrtn branch, including the style 
pluginization, have the following buildkey:

i686 Linux g++-4.* full-config

So there doesn't seem to have been a change, other than the g++ change from 
3.x to 4.x. So pluginization appears to be safe, or at least this aspect of 
it. I've updated the changelog to note this.

Cheers,
Chris
