Uh... oops. Chicken-and-the-egg problem: to use the Qt classes, you need to 
have run syncqt first. Otherwise you'll get compilation errors from headers 
including other headers.

That's probably one of the reasons why syncqt stayed a script.

So, if we want this in C++, it can't use anything but the Standard Library and 
POSIX/Win32.
