That's because the documentation is not exhaustive about every single possible 
use of Qt, with all the permutations of non-Qt functions available.

The reason I pointed out the fork issue is because of the problem we had in 
KDE three weeks ago. If we hadn't run into that problem, I wouldn't have 
learned what I learnt.

In any case, we don't want to document undefined behaviour. We want to leave it 
undefined so that, in the future, things may change.
