  Make QStackTextEngine cheaper to construct
  Add a function to get the transitions available from a state

  Code cleaning for the QStringList's joinEmptiness() test case
  Fix behavior change QStringList::join() for null
  Add a new WA_X11DoNotAcceptFocus attribute for top-level widgets.
  Cocoa: fix eventdispatcher crash, found by macgui autotest
  Make QWidget::activateWindow() NET window manager aware.
  Upgraded QLocale data to Unicode CLDR 1.8.0
  Improved CLDR parser.
  Fixed reading draft data from CLDR.
  Improved the cldr parser for QLocale.
  Do not use FSEvents-based filesystemwatcher backend on Mac.
  add file missing in commit 74f5e34979b8a08a91aa3c2fa6d252e68eca7817
  Moc: Add support for rvalue references in signals and slots.
  Add support for polyphonic greek
  Fix build failure on WinCE.
  Autotests: if you use X11 libs, you must link to X11 libs explicitly.
  Disable C++0x mode for QtWebKit and QtScript since WebKit will not compile any time soon with C++0x
  Compile Phonon in C++0x mode.
