I have no motivation to try it again. I pushed my patch to nokia qt bug tracker 3 years ago, but nobody look at it. Next, I created merge request on qt gitorious project and waited... and then was merge request removed due to migration from gitorious...

So if you can push it to review for me, I will prepare patch again.

I've made a few adjustments on the original patch, split that patch into a common part and a icoutils-specific part, and then created the winapi-based part to replace the icoutils one on Windows (porting icoutils to windows wasn't going to be easy).
