I'm not at a Windows box at the moment, but I know the QtSql4 is
already part of the basic Windows build that I have on my system.
Compiling it just basically amounts to a little more time spent
building.  Since we've figured out the issue of plugins, even if the
SQLITE is part of the plugin system, it should be pretty easy to bring
it into the system now that Gary ironed out those problems.
