Apart from this, Amarok runs (yay! further than I've got before),  
although I'm getting a nice backtrace when it crashes.

Now I'm not sure whether it's worth posting that to the bt list until  
I get an answer for the qt-mac issue, but at first glance it seems to  
be related to the ampache service.
I also get a warning on launch about Access Control not being enabled  
- any tips?

Looking very promising so far though! Good job, illogical :-)
