I hacked some parts of the build script to get 32-bit qmake and the rest 
of Qt seems to just use whatever qmake is built in.

But V8 refused to budge. It builds only in native arch. I don't know how 
to coerce it to.

And the question is will Qt 5 just forgo 32-bit Mac support? I don't see 
it mentioned anywhere.
