Right.  But LyX config didn't do that.  It bailed out because it
couldn't find moc or moc2 despite the fact that my environment variables
told it nicely that it's called moc3-mt.

Right again.  Nor did it affect LyX config in any way.

I didn't want to argue.  I just want the LyX configure to do a better
job.  If you can make it find the right Qt with qt-config or whatever,
everything is fine and dandy.

However, if you can't (which is currently the case) then I think this
"distribution feature" can be really helpful under condition that
configure really respects environment variables.  It does respect LIBS,
I do not see any reason not to respect MOC or UIC. Just my 2 cents.
