[Qt-interest] Is it a correct static build?

[Constantin Makshin]

"-qt-sql-sqlite" and "-plugin-sql-sqlite" options are somewhat mutually  
exclusive. Also static builds Qt don't support run-time loading of  
plugins, so you must to specify what plugins you want to use. Look at  
http://qt.nokia.com/doc/4.5/plugins-howto.html#static-plugins for details.
