Subject:	Re: How to make g++ link with QT (a microsoft compatible library) on x86
References:	<94A671CDB200AA49ADCC85C7FE10ED4D67FE28 AT hermes DOT super DOT dk>

Yep - this is the expected behavior! :) GNU g++ and MSVC
use different (incompatible) naming schemes to describe
symbols in C++ classes, thus the GNU linker cannot find the
appropriate symbol name for the QT symbols when linking
against MSVC compiled QT.
