Actually it should be possible to have both installed (if the qt/Quartz
library was renamed or put into a different directory), and just switch
qt-x11-dev and qt-quartz-dev or whatever which would contain the include
files and library symlinks for compile time linking.

That way both X version and Mac version of the application could run
side by side.
