+ preprocessor macros are defined.
+ * [128958] Ensured that static casts are not used in generated code.
+ * [116280] Added support for qulonglong and uint types.

+-uic3
+ * [137915] Added functionality to extract images via the -extract
+ command line option.

+ wrapper class which is Qt 3 source compatible should be generated.
+
+- qmake
+ * [121965] Implemented DSW (Workspace files) generation for MSVC 6.0
+ users.
+ * [132154] Added support for /bigobj option in the vcproj generator.
+ * Fixed crash with dependency analysis.
+ * Ensure that cleanup rules are not added for extra compilers with no
+ inputs.
+ * LEX/YACC support has been moved into .prf files.
+ * [156793] Introduced PRECOMPILED_DIR for PCH output (defaults to
+ OBJECTS_DIR).
+ * [257985] Fixed qmake location detection bug.
+ * Ensured that empty INCLUDEPATH definitions are stripped out.
+ * Allow QMAKE_UUID to override qmake deteremined UUID in the vcproj
+ generator.
+ * [151332] Ensured that .pc files are terminated with an extra carriage
+ return.
+ * [148535] Introduced QMAKE_FRAMEWORKPATH and used it internally.
+ * [127415] Fixed object_with_source.
+ * [127413] Introduced QMAKE_FILE_IN_PATH placeholder for extra
+ compilers.
+ * [95975] Replaced QMAKE_FILE_IN for custom build steps in DSP
+ generator.
+ * [141749] Added checks to prevent cyclical dependencies.
+ * [146368] Ensured that GNUmake .d files are removed upon distclean.
+ * Improved extensibility of the precompiled header support to allow icc
+ precompiled headers.
+ * [147142] Short-circuit previously seen library paths to avoid
+ cyclical .prl processing.
+ * [144492] Ensured that INSTALL_PROGRAM is set for INSTALLS in
+ macx-xcode projects.
+ * [143720] Extra compilers will now depend upon the input file
+ automatically.
+ * Introduced QMAKE_DISTCLEAN for extra files to be removed upon
+ invocation of "make distclean".
+ * [133518] Reduced the noise created by qmake warnings.
+ * [108012] Brought macx-xcode into line with macx-g++ with regards to
+ custom bundle types.
+ * [128759] Added support for spaces in paths to linked libraries.
+ * [83445] Made sure that "make distclean" in a library with a DESTDIR
+ really does remove the destination symbolic links.
+ * The subdir generator will now use - to separate target words and _ to
+ separate internally appended words.
+ * [125557] Fixed broken generation of dependencies for extra compilers.
+ * Ensured that the QMAKE_QMAKE variable is given a reasonable default
+ before parsing and evaluating project files.
+ * For Unix/Mac OS X, configure now has an -optimized-qmake option that
+ allows people to build qmake with optimizations.
+ This is disabled by default as older versions of some compilers take
+ a long time to build an optimized qmake. qmake is already built with
+ optimizations on Windows.
+ * [130979] Made the incremental link option case-insensitive.
+ * Ensured that paths for custom build steps in vcproj files have the
+ correct seperators.
+ * Avoid duplicate dependency paths, reduce file stats.
+ * [91313] Ensured that multiple commands in the DSP generator are
+ separated with \n\t characters.
+ * [108681] Added checks to avoid problems with uic3 files having
+ dependencies on themselves.
+ * [130977] Added support for non-flat output for vcproj files with
+ single configuration.
+ * [134971] Added support for more compiler and linker options for
+ vcproj files, and added catch-all cases which add options to
+ AdditionalOptions variables.
+ * [140548] Fixed escaping of the custom build step for image
+ collections.
+ * [114833] Ensured that paths in vcproj always have native filing
+ system separators.
+ * [144020] Only allow CONFIG+=staticlib for TEMPLATE==lib.
+ * [97300] Handle large number of include paths on Windows for moc by
+ using temporary files. (See moc changes.)
+ * [150519] Ensured that qmake is compiled with the correct mkspec on
+ Windows.
+ * [148724] Added manifest files to project clean up.
+ * [123501] Added /LIBPATH to AdditionalLibraryPaths in vcproj files.
+ * [80526] Made sure that extra compiler commands are not corrupted due
+ to path separator fixing.
+ * [109322] Moved hardcoded extra compilers, yacc and lex, into the PRF
+ (feature) system.
+ * [101783] Added a _DEBUG to Resource Tool for debug builds on Windows.
+ * [145074] Added a custom build step on input files, for extra compiler
+ files with built-in compilers for the output files.
+ * [150961] Added support for QMAKE_PRE_LINK in the DSP and VCPROJ
+ generators.
+ * Added checks to avoid double escaping of DESTDIR_TARGET file paths in
+ Windows Makefiles.
+ * Ensured that file paths for COPY_FILE and QMAKE_BUNDLE are escaped.
+ * [83765] Ensured that input files instead of output files are added to
+ extra compiler steps under certain conditions.
+ * [101482] Fixed relative path handling for RC_FILE.
