Yes, I've got a patch brewing. You can track the thing here: 
http://code.google.com/p/qtscriptgenerator/issues/detail?id=10
The patch still keeps the classes in libs that match Qt's libraries 
(e.g. all of bindings for QtGui in one library), but it cuts down 
drastically on initialization time since it only creates "stubs" for all 
the binding classes.
