In file included from MappedStudio.h:29,
                 from AlsaDriver.cpp:34:
Plugins.h:34: qvaluevector.h: No such file or directory

qvaluevector.h seems to be a feature new to qt3. If you're continuing
to support kde2/qt2, you'll need to find some way around this.

2) configure is broken with a non-bash shell again. This is due
to the use of the substring construction ${var:offset[:length]},
which is non-posix.

You can either change the configure script to explicitly require
bash, or make the following change to configure.in.in, which does
the same thing but only using posix substrings:
