Applying a solution to a single OS is inherently wrong, and is what has made building KDE 4 on OSX/Windows so difficult. Patches should *always* be upstreamed, especially when we are essentially the distributor (in essence we are carrying forks of our own projects due to these patches). > > And still it needs to be studied for Qt5, unless the plan is to never > transition to Qt 5 (which means KDE-on-Mac will stop compiling within 2 > years).
