A quick survey of one of my 4.5 systems shows qt being "required" by 
quite a number of important packages.  I'm not sure I'd be willing to 
roll the dice on upgrading it without doing some checking around to make 
sure it doesn't break other important libraries.  If it was a relatively 
minor version increment, I'd be less worried, but you're talking 
3.3.mumble --> 4.2+ here.

Best,
