Thanks for the suggestion, I did and pushed.

Yes. I added harfbuzz as an input to qt 5, and took it out again for qt-4.

Done and pushed, only for qt 5. I tried the flag "-skip qtwebengine" for qt-4,
and it was not recognised. Apparently this modularisation appears only
in qt 5.

I looked into the "submodules" directory on the download server, and also
tried to search a bit the documentation, but did not quite understand whether
it was possible to build the different qt libraries separately. My impression
was that it was not possible. To me, it looks as if these different modules
first need to be unpacked in a common place and then be compiled all together.
The same could then be reached by configuring with "-skip this -skip that",
except that one would not need to download the modules that will not be
compiled.
