IMHO this statement is not legal from C++ point of view (although the
compiler should not give up anyway, just return an error). Maybe these
headers should be preprocessed by some Qt tool before?

BTW, mingw does not affect gcc compiler itself -- just replaces startup
code and runtime libraries. So you problem has nothing to do with
mingw. Try to ask Qt people for help ...

Hope to hear from you soon,
