For 4.4 you'll need some patches to fix configure.exe. For 4.5 I hope
that we don't need them anymore because wince is also build
out-of-source (at least someone from tt asked on kde-windows how we
managed to compile 4.4/win out-of-source and he wanted to do the same
for wince). Did not try it for 4.5rc1 therefore I can't say if it works
on plain qt.
