I meant that I can't just include "qdbusabstractadaptor_p.h" from the 
bootstrapped qdbuscpp2xml, because all of the QObject stuff (which is not 
available when bootstrapping) causes compile failures. Rather than using very 
many ifdef QT_BOOTSTRAPPING, I would be moving 

#define QCLASSINFO_DBUS_INTERFACE       "D-Bus Interface"

and some other stuff to qdbusdefs.h or so so that I can use it easily during 
bootstrapping. I would also have to make QDbusIntrospection, QDbusXmlParser, 
QDbusUtil and QDBusMessage bootstrapping friendly. Mostly that should be easy 
enough.

I can do that.

I'll get it done asap then.

Agreed. I'm only aiming to move the 'build-time' tools to qtbase.git.

Thanks,
