Yes it seems I misinterpreted what the variables are for, they refer to 
the Qt installation. When I look here
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qmake-environment-reference.html
it seems one has to provide a qmake.conf file with the install paths you 
want.
Does the qscintilla already has such a qmake.conf file you can edit?
