Qt Creator 2.4.1 build on RHEL 4 fails

[rohalm]

Hi

I have succesfully built both Qt-4.8.0 and Qt-4.7.4 on my RHEL 4 system.
Now I am trying to build Qt-Creator-2.4.1 as well, but it fails during compiling of the texteditor plugin:

Can anybody help me on this?

Sorry, I never tried to build creator on such an old system. My guess would be that libstdc++ or g++ are too old and do not yet support something we do.

You will need to try and work around the issue by changing the code.
