[Bug 914033] Re: [Upstream] threading crashes in qt with kde theme

[Jonathan Riddell]

** Description changed:

- Upstream reports that Libreoffice and Qt need a patch each to work
- together with Libreoffice 3.4 and Qt 4.7, this is because of assumptions
- about threading.
+ let Qt call XInitThreads(), so that it knows it's been called
+ Otherwise QPixmap complains when used outside of the main Qt thread and resets itself to null pixmap, eventually leading to crashes.
+ 
+ Upstream reports that Libreoffice and Qt need a patch each to work together with
