Ok, so we need to support that on Windows. I.e., if we're linking against 
the debug Qt build, we generate debugging ('d') libraries.

On MacOS X, from what I hear, the frameworks have both libraries -- i.e., 
nothing + "_debug". So it looks like we should support the same.

On all the other Unix, I'd rather we didn't introduce anything right now. 
Switching libraries is very useful and I'd rather not have to rebuild my 
whole KDE just because I want to debug something in kdecore or Qt.
