Yes.. only on 10.6 and earlier OS.
We're in 2012 and it doesn't work on 10.7 and later.

So that discussion is now moot

both -man and -help gives how it should be run

that's assuming that you can compile Qt... it's less and less
straightforward to do so

It's also 32 bits only.
All machine running 10.7 are 64 bits ones

I have :)

this will not work.
qtbi n or qtsdk assumes that you have compiled Qt compiled as
frameworks (which is the default).
the previous packager disabled building as frameworks, only build
static libraries. As such, plugins aren't usable with the built
generated by the old packager.

It isn't rebuilding Qt... It downloads the original source code to
build the mysql plugin

To build the mysql plugins for that particular Qt version you are
running, you need the Qt source code.

Which would ultimately fail to run anyway as you have compiled Qt
statically earlier, and plugins aren't usable

The process to build the mysql plugin takes about 4-5s
