That URL is 404. I can't find any place to download QT 7.0.1 from  
Apple anymore.

If Apple has not fixed this problem in the several versions of QT  
since 7.0.4, Apple must not believe it is a bug. Has anyone attempted  
to contact the libsdl developers about this problem, or checked their  
bug database?
