From qt "configure --help" text

    -no-xmlpatterns .... Do not build the QtXmlPatterns module.
 +  -xmlpatterns ....... Build the QtXmlPatterns module.
                         QtXmlPatterns is built if a decent C++ compiler
                         is used and exceptions are enabled.


So if you compile qt with -no-exception you get no QXmlPatterns.

It's possible that koffice itself compiles with -no-exception. But iirc not with a
qt build with -no-exceptions because something in there uses QXmlPattern. At
least that's what i remember.

The email is about compiling qt. Nothing else. And how it affects compiling
kde.
