Jérôme,

There's a discussion going on about the Qt terminal under Mac OS X.  It 
seems that QtCore uses CoreFoundation APIs but a new rule imposed by 
Apple (or whomever) says that CoreFoundation calls can't be inside child 
processes.  The way the qt_term and qt_init are set up now creates the 
QApplication inside a child process.  Please look through the thread

Re: Qt on Mac (was: Getting ready to put out a 4.6 release candidate)

I'm wondering if perhaps the creation of the GUI QApplication shouldn't 
be done in a way similar to gplt_x11, i.e., via exec().  I will follow up...
