My statement was based on the Qt5 alpha package for Linux, that one has
no phonon sources anywhere to be seen so nothing could've been built.
Maybe in git its already been re-added. If qmake doesn't understand its
there I'd suggest to check the mkspecs/ directory, thats apparently
where the magic for QT+= happens (in features/ or modules/) and maybe
report a bug that its not usable out of the box.

I don't see what KDE has to do with this, Phonon is a Qt-based project
thats independent of KDE, it just happens to be hosted on kde.org
infrastructure.
