It looks like the build process has decided you are not running on a Mac 
and is therefore not adding Mac libraries to the link process.

When using the Qt pre-built binaries with the old build system 
(--with-qtdir=/usr/local/Qt4.2), you need to create three symlinks in Qt4.2:

ln -s /usr/bin /usr/local/Qt4.2/bin
ln -s /Library/Frameworks /usr/local/Qt4.2/lib
ln -s /Developer/Applications/Qt/plugins /usr/local/Qt4.2/plugins
