 > I'll bundle and test the 10.11 patch (on 10.9) with my own qt4-mac-devel
 port and upload a tarball of it here, as a constructive ''gesture''
 (realising full well only thoughts and comments were sollicited :P)

 OMG that's more than what I was asking for. You knew that, too ;P}

 What are the primary/major differences between your setup and the current
 on in MP?

 -> Maybe: Send me a private email naming each new patch file & new variant
 and briefly what it addresses / does? I'm really not sure how to approach
 all of your changes!

 -> You know that I'm not going to just use what you provide out of the
 box. That said, you've put a lot of time into these changes and I'm quite
 sure that some of them fix bugs or add usable features -- so, I'd like to
 determine which do what. But, this is a big task & my time is limited.

 -> NOTE: I don't want a formal diff (e.g., "svn diff") between the current
 Portfile and yours; just too many changes to be able to parse what is
 what. Nor do I care about the qt_dir install prefix, or parallel install,
 or transitional / exclusive or anything along those lines. We're going to
 move qt4-mac into ${prefix}/libexec/qt4-; period.

 -> For example, I notice quite a number of patches added to yours, and
 some extra variants. Do these fix bugs in open MP (or other) ticket and/or
 add usable functionality? Do they allow for better building across more
 compilers / OSs (e.g., KDE, X11, Aqua)?
