Tom,

Have you tried building with the qt-4.5 beta that recently was  
released? I'm trying with the binary from trolltech (have not tried a  
source build yet), but seem to be hitting some issues with  
international support (maybe the binary does not have that included;  
it's not a big download). The grass plugin also appears to still be a  
problem.

I'd like to hear how this might affect the mac platform (positive and  
negative) and any workarounds that you are able to conjure. I posted  
links to my build errors on irc a moment ago if you care to look at  
them.

Regards,
John
