Attached a patch with speeds up compilation by several factors.
Here it takes about 5 minutes to build the generator, qtscript_core,
and qtscript_gui, which is much faster.

With the patch one file is generated which includes all the other
.cpp files and only this file is compiled.

I've tested it with msvc and Qt 4.5.0.
The diff is against git://repo.or.cz/qtscriptgenerator/amarok.git
