Meanwhile, to respond to your question... It's possible, but it has
some limitations.

First, you must rebuild Qt as a set of static libraries. (That is, add
the -static flag to configure.) Then you have to add this new Qt
installation to Creator. Finally, rebuild your application.

There are several disadvantages to static compilation:
* You can't do both static and 64-bit on Mac until 4.6.0. (Of course,
on Mac there's better solutions than static anyway.)
* Qt's plugin system is disabled, which can cause problems for things
like SQL drivers and Phonon.
* If you're distributing a closed-source application using LGPL Qt,
static compilation introduces a major headache; the LGPL requires that
the recipient of the program has to be able to relink the program with
a modified version of the library.

If you're not using plugins (including the plugins included with Qt),
and you're only worried about the single executable file on Windows,
and you're distributing an open-source application (or if you own a
commercial license), you're in the clear. If you need anything
different, static linking is probably not a good idea.
