README.qtcopy: -no-stl or no -no-stl?

Hi,

The first ./configure example in README.qt-copy is:

./configure -system-zlib -qt-gif -system-libpng -system-libjpeg \
  -plugin-imgfmt-mng -thread -no-stl -fast

but the recommended ./configure line for GCC is:

./configure -system-zlib -qt-gif -system-libpng -system-libjpeg \
  -plugin-imgfmt-mng -thread -no-exceptions -debug -fast

Why does the first one include -no-stl but not the second one?  There
isn't an explanation in the file as to which one is most desireable,
speed and efficiency wise.

./configure --help says:

    -no-stl ............... Do not compile STL support.

Why would Qt need STL support anyway?  I've compiled
arts/kdelibs/kdebase with a no-stl Qt and have seen no apparent ill
effects.

Sorry to bring this up again, just think an explanation in
README.qt-copy would be nice.

Cheers,
Navin.
