I'm not sure if there are differences, when debugging your own code, but 
if you want to get information about the qt-methods and their behavior, 
a self-compiled qt can be nice. You can instruct the compiler to not 
omit frame-pointers, to add special debugging information for your 
desired debugger (on linux you would want to add gdb-information with 
the gcc; on windows I'm not sure, 'cause I don't use it :D) and you can 
prevent strip-operations after the linking. With that, your lib will be 
larger and maybe a little slower, but debugging will be much more 
comfortable, because you don't have to read assembly ;)

best regards,
