OK. One must set (export) a QT_SELECT=4 or such before running ./configure.
Since qmake never needed such an environment variable or argument before, I do 
consider this a bug. An example is that the ./configure here did not set that 
variable or supply an argument based on choices made by its qt choice argment. 
No one knew one needed it and the ./configure --help said that qt4 was default.

So Rui, please implement (and the default qt4) in the configure.
