--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
 In q4-mac-4.5.2 port there is a mention that it changes plugin extension
 to .bundle from .dylib used in original QT.

 They are indeed bundles but for portability reasons QT uses for them
 shared lib extension, which is .dylib on mac. So it does not copy plugins
 into app bundles making the non-portable.

 The change breaks qtmacdeploy utility which searches plugins using .dylib
 extension.
