Comment (by mojca@…):

 Thank a lot for these patches. So `GEANT4_FORCE_QT4` was introduced in
 4.10.2? Thanks a lot for pointing that out.

 I need to fix #50426 first and I will consult the upstream about Qt5
 compatibility (version 4.9.6 has problem even with Qt4 without the extra
 patch, so I'm a bit sceptic about its support for Qt5).

 I will try to come up with something about default selection between Qt4
 and Qt5 (as discussed in #50321). I'm at least a bit inclined to leave the
 default at Qt4 for older versions of Geant4 and only switch to Qt5 as
 default for 4.10.2 (and than only for platforms that support it).

 Geant4.10.2 already requires C++11, so defaulting to Qt5 makes some sense
 even on Lion (with libstdc++ as default).

 The issues with C++11 on < 10.9 are getting more and more burning &
 confusing.
