Oops, I forgot to mention that I also ship a qt.conf that sets the path 
to "." - that's what makes this possible.

I just checked on a clean virtual machine. If I remove the qt.conf it 
doesn't work, like you predicted. Moving the two plugins dirs to the 
toplevel does.

But the point of my first mail was actually not this one. It's more to 
try and copy over all the dll's and all plugins and see if you can make 
this work. If you can, then it's a question of missing dependencies on 
Igors side. If not, there's something not Qt related that stops this. 
But as it complained about the windows plugin, it's a very safe bet that 
it's either the plugins dir locations or some missing libraries.
