qt4*-image and qt 4.6.3?

[Tom Rini]

Hey all,

Currently none of the qt4*-images build for qt4 4.6.3.  This is because 
building with -xmlpatterns in 4.6.3 isn't viable (it's not a trivial fix 
to enable it, for some reason...) and it's embedded into the image 
recipes themselves in some cases, rather than tasks that can be 
RRECOMMENDED.  I see two courses of action here:
1) Just say the images don't build on 4.6.x (and I'll drop trying them 
from my builder)
2) Rework the qt4e-*images to use a new task-qt4e-base and update 
task-qt4-x11 to RRECOMMEND the xmlpattern bits.

Currently angstrom-2008.1 and kaelios-2009 pin to 4.6.3 and are in-tree 
(and I know Arago also cares, but is out of tree and I'm not suggesting 
we drop qt 4.6.x). Thoughts?  Thanks!

Could you send me the error you get? xmlpatterns should have no external
dependencies... so I wonder how it is failing
