That's not correct. The Qt license that comes with Kylix is only
allows you use in Kylix programs. Here is the relevant section 
from the license information:

  2.6 Restrictions on CLXDisplay API (Qt.pas) usage
  ---------------------------------------------------
  CLXDisplay API, the Qt.pas interface to the Qt runtime, is
  only licensed for use in VisualCLX applications or a
  component that derives from TControl in the QControls
  unit. A VisualCLX application is an application that
  uses the TApplication object and uses at least one
  component derived from TControl. You are not licensed
  to use Qt.pas to create applications or components that
  exclusively call the Qt.pas interfaces. The above restrictions
  do not apply to applications or components licensed under the
  GPL. A separate commercial development license from Trolltech
  is required for use of Qt.pas in any manner other than
  authorized above.

Bernd.
