There is no configure option as this should not be needed. Let's see if we need one or if we start building outside of scratchbox with a sysroot instead.||

It enabled compiling qmake with the host compiler in scratchbox to avoid running qmake in qemu but might cause build error since it's gcc 3.5.||

-   * Qt 5 TODOs:
-      * Build issue with the -platform/-xplatform switch and fontconfig/freetype (Simon).
-      * No interaction with page possible when launching MiniBrowser with -touch. Due to broken touch mocking. (Simon)
-      * Text is funny mis-rendered in MiniBrowser -touch. (Fixed, pending review/inclusion in qtbase. Patch at http://paste.kde.org/134605/ )
-      * Touch Input (xi2) support in Qt 5 for Harmattan (Jocelyn. Fixed in qtbase master)
-      * Input method support in Qt 5 for Harmattan
-   * Most obvious WebKit issues:
-      * MiniBrowser doesn't show any web content on Harmattan (Jocelyn. Fixed in qtbase master)
-   * Rewrite MiniBrowser in QML
-   * Figure out "kinetic" scrolling (pending QScroller decision)
