My question does remain how Qt4 includes or links to the harfbuzz functions. Even after building with -harfbuzz none of the binaries in the resulting frameworks link to libharfbuzz, and the 3rdparty/harfbuzz directory in the Qt source/build tree hasn't even been configured.
Harfbuzz does show up in the feature list printed after the configure step, though.
