Please note that qtVersion may be 0 here. A kit does not have to have a Qt version set after all.

In many places in the Qt Creator UI (e.g. for external tools, run arguments, etc.) that path should also be available as "%{CurrentProject:QT_HOST_BINS}" (or %{CurrentProject:QT_INSTALL_BINS}). So maybe you can get away without C++ code.
