It cannot be. If it uses a GPL'ed library, it must be under GPL.
However, you can double-license part your source code - but not binaries -
under some other license. It goes like this: "Any part of this source code
which does not use Sword API may be relicensed under BSD License."
Actually "which does not use Sword API" is not necessary in my opinion. GPL
and QPL restrictions became relevant automatically if derivative relicensed
work uses Sword or Qt. But clearly indicating the restrictions is of course
good and you should do it.
These license things have been discussed earlier. It was quite hot topic and I
burned my fingers, so be careful.
