   of (non-unicode) Windows 9x/ME support.


****************************************************************************
*                   Important Behavior Changes                             *
****************************************************************************

 - The experimental Direct3D paint engine has been removed. The reason for
   this is that Nokia focuses on OpenGL for desktop hardware accelerated
   rendering.

 - When mixing OpenGL and QPainter calls you need to first call syncState()
   on the paint engine, for example "painter->paintEngine()->syncState()".
   This is to ensure that the engine flushes any pending drawing and sets up
   the GL modelview/projection matrices properly.

 - Graphics View has undergone heavy optimization work, and as a result of
   this work, the following behavior changes were introduced.

   a) QStyleOptionGraphicsItem::exposedRect now contains the item's bounding
      rectangle, and QStyleOptionGraphicsItem::matrix is uninitialized by
      default. You can enable an exact exposed rectangle and a correct matrix
      by enabling the flag QGraphicsItem::ItemUsesExtendedStyleOptions.

   b) QStyleOptionGraphicsItem::levelOfDetails is obsoleted and its value is
      always initialized to 1. Instead you can call
      QStyleOptionGraphicsItem::levelOfDetailFromTransform(const QTransform &)
      to determine the level of detail.

   c) QGraphicsView no longer calls QGraphicsView::drawItems(), and in turn
      QGraphicsScene::drawItems(), by default. You can get the old behavior
      back by enabling QGraphicsView::IndirectPainting.

   d) QGraphicsItem no longer calls itemChange() for position and
      transformation changes. If you want to receive notifications for changes
      to the item's position and transformation, you can set the flag
      QGraphicsItem::ItemSendsGeometryChanges (which is enabled by default by
      QGraphicsWidget and QGraphicsProxyWidget).

- QDesktopWidget on X11 no longer emits the resized(int) signal when screens
  are added or removed. This was not done on other platforms. Use the
  screenCountChanged signal instead

- QUrl's parser is more strict when for hostnames in URLs. QUrl now
  enforces STD 3 rules:

   * each individual hostname section (between dots) must be at most
     63 ASCII characters in length;

   * only letters, digits, and the hyphen character are allowed in the
     ASCII range; letters outside the ASCII range follow the normal
     IDN rules

  That means QUrl no longer accepts some URLs that were invalid
  before, but weren't interpreted as such.
