I propose adding this now for 0.9.2 with preprocessor tests for Qt4.2 and 4.3. Users with 4.2 would continue to compile the old code while users of 4.3 will benefit from the new code.

I have already made this modification as part of removing all Qt3 code from qgis. The full set of modifications (all except the GRASS plugin) won't be ready for about two more weeks but this composer modification is independent of everything else. Should I submit it to svn?
