Right, I followed that with a clarification of supported systems.  You
can use wxwindows with gtk-qt to get a Qt-ish look, although that's not
ideal.

The issue with wxqt is licensing; wxWindows is open-source, but not GPL
(it allows closed-source app development); gtk is LGPL'd so that's not
an issue, but Qt is GPL'd.  Julian Smart (wxwindows developer)
contacted Troll for license clarifications but didn't get a response
(or not a useful one, I can't remember the specifics).  There's no
ideological opposition to a qt implementation if the licensing can be
resolved (indeed they're willing to work with fully closed-source
toolkits, they just don't want to force application developers using
their toolkit to use a particular license).
