Debug under Windows? I use Qt Creator on both Linux and Windows. Excellent for 
debugging.

Yeah, those plugins can be pesky. That said; you can actually get it the 
mysql-plugin compiled on Windows. Google e.g. "qt 4.5 windows mingw mysql" and 
you'll find plenty of how-to's on how to get that up and running.

I tried getting the Mysql-plugin to work using VCe but failed. Mingw worked 
for me though. :)
