No, everything is right:

There are more than 150 *.pro and thus more than 150 exe files
which each is larger than 33-34MB because of static linkage.
Thus you will need more then 150 * 34MB =  5100 MB.

Try it with a larger partition or with dynamic linking,
therefor you must remove the -static option and start
again, but beware the final link process of the qt library
(generating the dll) takes very long.

Cheers,
Peter
