Compile Qt 4.8.5 on RHEL 3.9

[SPF_MJT]

Hello,

I had to compile a project on RHEL 3.9, using gcc 3.2.3. If someone has to do the same (I don't wish it to anyone...), here's some modifications I made :

@cd $HOME
tar xvzf qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.5.tar.gz
cd qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.5
./configure --prefix=$HOME/Qt-4.8.5 -no-dbus -release -nomake examples -nomake demos -opensource -confirm-license -no-declarative -no-script -no-javascript-jit -noscripttools -no-webkit
patch -p0 < patch_Qt-4.8.5_RHEL-3.9.txt
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/kerberos/include
make
make install@

Poor you... congrats for getting it to compile on such an old system.
