Ok, then my suggestion is:

- wrap the method around #ifndef Q_OS_WIN32 or equivalent
- add to its documentation:
  \paragraph Warning 
    This method is not available on Win32 platforms and should, therefore, 
not be used in code intending to be portable.

There are already many such cases in Qt itself, so one more won't be a 
problem (see http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/qobject.html#findChild and 
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/qvariant.html#fromValue for examples, though 
the reason why those methods aren't available is a completely different 
brain-damage by Microsoft).
