Those are specific to the Qt build and seriously, its completely idiotic 
that we (resp. Qt's configure) don't put them into qconfig.h. Same for 
QT_NAMESPACE.
Then no build tool needs to know about them.

But with the current situation we could extract this information from 
qconfig.pri. Either on the fly with every invocation of qbs or with a 
special Qt setup tool.
