I purged .osx-packager/build/include more thoroughly,
and got past Qt. Now up to the libavcodec build errors.
This change (basically reverting [20843], adding back
some earlier MMX )
may get you further:

Universal, but if that isn't possible, new arguments
to osx-packager to specify ppc/32bit/64bit.

Ideally, configure would test all of this for us, but it is
probably a bit hard when Qt might never support both 32 & 64bit
builds from the one "install" of its libraries and headers.
