To follow André and Yves:
 - If you debug code within signal/slots or event mechanisms for instance,
it's very handy to trace through Qt code. In Qt, your code is often called
by Qt's classes.
 - It also activates many Q_ASSERT checks, for instance with out-of-bounds
indices. With release qt libs, this will just crash, with debug libs, it
will break nicely within Qt's code...
 - And is there simply a good reason not to use debug libraries when
debugging ?

Cheers,

Etienne
