Uhm, nope, I meant <QtGlobal>. On OS X, I have to specify each
framework separately anyway.

The only additional hint I found was an older discussion on one of the
Qt mailing lists [1]. To quote one of the Qt developers:

"Qt 4 has the old filenames with .h suffix for the traditionalists among us,  
we do modern stl-like includes based on the classname (similar to <string>, 
<list> , etc.), , and we do support what people with more modern tool chains 
want to do: QtCore, QtGui, etc."

So, which header to include pretty much seems to be a matter of taste.
There is however no <Qt/qglobal.h> equivalent in the Qt binary distribution
for OS X.

Regards,
Daniel
