I think we really need to either stabilize 4.8.6, or backport
qtchooser/multilib/etc to the current stable version.

qt is a pretty significant package to have break with multilib, and
trying to run qt-5 on a stable system is already a nightmare with the
qtchooser switch (in my case I ended up abandoning qt5 as I didn't
need it that badly).
