[KDE/Mac] QStandardPaths possible solution

[Jeremy Whiting]

Ok I got this qt built with dbus at last, and almost all frameworks build
against it now with XDG_DATA_DIRS set (to /usr/local/share since I'm
building with kdesrc-build) And it seems to fix the issues of finding data
files from the /usr/local/share location fine. I ran kanagram with it and
it finds it's vocabulary files fine, etc. I guess the next step is
submitting this to gerrit? Does this patch look ok to everyone here? If you
see anything I should change speak up now, otherwise I'll post it to gerrit
tomorrow.

thanks,
Jeremy
