Qt4 shouldn't require X11, even on Unix

This section of FindQt4.cmake seems bogus to me:
IF(UNIX)
# on OS X X11 may not be required
IF (Q_WS_X11)
FIND_PACKAGE(X11 REQUIRED)
ENDIF (Q_WS_X11)
It's not necessary to have X11 headers in order to compile Qt4
applications or KDE 4 ones. There are no X11 headers included in any
public Qt4 application.
I believe the requirement should be only in kdelibs and kdebase (because
of workspace). Other applications should require X11 on a case-by-case
basis. It'll also make it easier to tell which applications are not
portable.
I guess we'll have to wait for the 4.2-unfreeze.
