 Since revision 69495 of the qt4-mac port, the global include directory
 "${destroot}/${qt_includes_dir}/Qt" is deleted after installation.

 I understand the comment stating that directory exists for legacy purposes
 and should not be used, however I know of a number of legacy libraries
 which rely on the existence of $QTDIR/include/Qt and its contents to
 detect Qt.

 Is there any reason other than saving space (conflicts with other ports?)
 why this directory should be deleted?

 Anyway, it would be great if there was at least a variant offering the
 possibility to keep this include/Qt directory. Failing this, I will have
 to give up qt4-mac and build the upstream version by hand.
