Well, thanks for the info. I tried running Qt Creator 2.4 RC today on 
RHEL5 with Qt 4.5.
I was aware of the problem with obsolete fontconfig package. So I 
updated the fontconfig package to 2.4.2.

When I tried executing qtcreator.sh, I got this:

Failed to load core: 
/opt/qtcreator-2.3.84/lib/qtcreator/plugins/Nokia/libCore.so: Cannot 
load library 
/opt/qtcreator-2.3.84/lib/qtcreator/plugins/Nokia/libCore.so: 
(/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.9' not found (required by 
/opt/qtcreator-2.3.84/lib/qtcreator/plugins/Nokia/../../libBotan.so.1))

I guess my C++ library installation is a bit too old. Searching the 
internet, I found these:

So, I think I have to build gcc in to a separate directory and use the 
apparently-not-so-good LD_LIBRARY_PATH hack to get Qt creator working. I 
am going to try that tomorrow.
