Who says it's broken or even wrong? If `QMAKEPATH` is unset, then the user just doesn't care about the extra Qt modules installed into the install prefix. And he/she shouldn't need to worry about it as long as qmake isn't the build system of choice.

Reducing the set of env vars needed to work on KDE is a good thing, too :)
