Try adding "-nomake examples -nomake demos" to your configure line.
There are also other options you can use to disable building other
components; check "configure -help".

This feature was missing in older versions of Qt/Win, but as far as I
can tell they're present and functioning with 4.5. They've always been
available on UNIX platforms.
