QtC can't work with STL from GCC 4.6 due to limitation within built-in
c++ preprocessor. Definition of macros '_GLIBCXX_BEGIN_NAMESPACE'
which is used to define 'std' namespace is too complicated for QtC
built-in preprocessor. I have ad-hoc solution for this issue but this
problem requires more common solution, I think.
