I had a look now too.
Why do they include both files here ?
Using qmake, the qscriptenginedebugger.moc is as far as I can see, for the moc 
from the cpp file, while moc_qscriptenginedebugger.cpp is for the moc from the 
header.
Now, why is the moc_...cpp actually #included at all ?
Isn't it enough to list the header in the qmake file, and it will be moced ?

Also, in qmake/options.cpp I see the follow code:

    Option::cpp_moc_mod = "";
    Option::h_moc_mod = "moc_";
    ...
    Option::cpp_moc_ext = ".moc";
    Option::h_moc_ext = ".cpp";

which seems to say that the moc file for foo.cpp will be foo.moc, while the 
moc file for foo.h will be moc_foo.cpp (so it can be built as a standalone cpp 
file).
