Description:   Opened: 2008-03-14 17:06 0000 
The Qt library version 4.3.x has problems with aliasing.
These should be fixed in 4.4.

Some gcc versions with optimization '-O2' or '-fstrict-aliasing' compile Qt but
throw segmentation faults at runtime.

See my mailing list thread at Qt-interest:
http://lists.trolltech.com/qt-interest/2008-03/thread00368-0.html
(Message 6 and onwards get interesting.)

One issue is fixed with the patch from fedora on URL. But on f.g.o and b.g.o I
see Qt segfaulting other way, the QApplication constructor.

I recommend to add 'append-flags -fno-strict-aliasing' in src_compile before
configure is called.
