But the sources would still allow compiling with Xp and earlier versions.

I cannot make sense of this bug report. Firstly, the reported missing
API was actually there. Indeed, that code was being compiled on Vista
long before Win7 was released.

Secondly, one could still compile LyX using and old Qt, so the requirements
can differ. For what I know, LyX could actually be compiled on Vista,
because all required APIs are there. If one cannot do that because he
uses a recent Qt version that does not support Vista, that's another story.
