    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The use of QT_CPPFLAGS and QT_LDFLAGS isn't consistent. Presently, it is
necessary to include the Qt flags in CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS.

One example are the several (all?) Qt tests. For example, the test for
QAbstractItemModel::beginResetModel requires that the Qt flags be included in
CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS or the test will fail.

A second example is compiling __init_qt__. 

I expect this is a fairly easy problem to fix. Can someone point me to where
flags are added to configure tests? And where flags are added for specific
files?
