At least for me and krdc each Qt update comes with a few, subtle problems.
With 3.0->3.1 I had the problem that QWidget::showNormal() stopped sending
QEvent::Show events, which caused problems because I wouldnt be notified of
deminimization of my main window.
With Qt 3.1->3.2 my sizeHint() suddenly was to small by one pixel, so I had to
add one (otherwise the ScrollView would show scroll bars).
In other words, I would need to keep 2 Qt version around (to check whether my
fix for the new version still works with the old one) and test everything
twice. Definitely much more work than compiling a Qt version every 1-2
months. Compared to updating kdelibs it's not much work...
bye...
