Here's why:

netwm.h includes X11/Xlib.h, which has:
#define Bool int

Subsequently, qvariant.h defines enum QVariant::Type containing an 
element called Bool. It gets replaced by "int" and then the compiler 
complains.

Solution:
#include <fixx11.h>
after #include <netwm.h>

I'd go even further and suggest netwm.h include it after it's done 
including the X11 namespace-dirty headers.
