Yes, I can see it in svn. I hadn't newest check out.

I'm building both qt and windbus with mingw.

Nice. It is much clearer now. Btw. imo DBUS_INSTALL_DIR is not read from
environment but it is hardcoded in src.pro file. I don't know (yet :) how to read
it (in .pro file) from environment but could you please add (to the
wiki) that this variable should be modified in 'tools\qdbus\src\src.pro' file?

I'll try to compile qt and windbus using msvc and then I will see if those
linking errors remain.
