Which is why those running SVN should subscribe to and read the -dev and 
-commits lists:  things change quickly in SVN.

mythfrontend -O ThemePainter=qt

However, it's unlikely to do anything for you because another change in 
SVN was the change from a default of using the opengl ThemePainter to a 
default of using the qt ThemePainter.  Therefore, the above will tell 
Myth to use the default, so nothing will change.

But, I have to admit you did better than many--you actually searched the 
lists before posting.  :)
