$ uname -a
Darwin nadav.local 10.2.0 Darwin Kernel Version 10.2.0: Tue Nov  3 10:37:10
PST 2009; root:xnu-1486.2.11~1/RELEASE_I386 i386

It looks like the --target-arch=x86 has no effect on the command line flags
passed to g++ for the Qt4 check. It fails in exactly the same way (with the
same command line)
