Calligra on Windows: QtDBus

Hi Taco,

I can confirm that I receive the same build error with the kde-4.8 and 
the latest version of emerge.

I'll ask the folks on the kde-windows community if there is a patch for 
this yet, I thought one had been prepared, but it's possible that it's 
not been merged yet.
