This is a rather bizarre requirement!  Anyway, if the Qt source is
distributed with your project, why not just put the Qt headers and libs into
a subfolder of your project, and reference that subfolder in your project's
properties?  At that point, the Qt headers and libs are private to your
project and are used regardless of whether Qt is installed normally or not.
