The answer is likely "Nobody will stop an attempt to talk, but given that such issues have been around at least since Qt 4.0 (that's when I personally ran into them) and the tendency lately is rather to not include well-known versions of $X anymore but rather depend on random version of 'system' or auto-'updated' $X this is unlikely to happen."
