Hi Thiago,
I am also trying to build QT 4.5.0 on a linux box with Redhat EL 4, 
glibc version 2.3.4 g++ version 3.4.6. I know glibc is old, but in 
searching the web about issues surrounding upgrading to glibc 2.4, one 
respondent said that it was an "apocalyptically bad idea", so I'll stick 
to 2.3.4. I ran the configure script successfully, but when I tried to 
build Qt, I got errors in compiling qfilesystemwatch_inotify.cpp that 
had to do with a missing <sys/inotify.h> file. A check of the code 
revealed that this file is included if the macro QT_NO_INOTIFY is not 
defined. I tried various configure options but finally had to manually
	#define QT_NO_INOTIFY
What is the correct way to get that macro set in Qt-4.5.0? It seems to 
get set properly in Qt-4.4.3.
Thanks
