Because MSVC is using two different msvcrt - libraries (one release and
one debug version) you can't mix debug and release libs without a crash
sooner or later. Qt introduced the debug-prefix ('d' or '_debug') to
work around this problem and we need this for kde too. I don't know any
other way to be sure to not mix the libs... :-(
