That is just not true. Many Qt programs out there are NOT built using qmake,
but more flexible build systems. Those build systems need to call those
tools themselves. Even Qt itself is experimenting with qmake replacements
(see e.g. QBS). cc1 is almost never invoked directly (only through gcc), but
this is not true for moc, rcc, uic etc. So hiding them in a non-PATH
directory is not an ideal solution (even if that directory can be found by
invoking qmake).
