I unfortunately can't contribute an answer, because I also don't know a proper 
way to fix this.

What concerns me is that there are suddenly methods in Qt that are no longer 
virtual; I guess these kind of errors can be found in other places, too.
Anybody knows if there is a compiler warning for this? It should warn if 
non-virtual methods are overridden in a subclass. This would be very helpful 
(like the overload-virtual warnings).

Regards,
Thomas
