[Qt-interest] Broken Qt 4.7.4 documentation

Rebuild the documentation by running "make docs" or something like that (I
don't know the exact makefile target name). You'll get some warning messages
about missing images (it's interesting that some of those images actually
exist, but not in the format documentation [project] files expect them to
be), but the result should be OK.

If you want, I can share the rebuilt "qt.qch" file I use.
