Would it be possible to add Qt to available_graphics_toolkits, so that
the uicontrol function would work, even if the main IDE GUI does not, or
is this precluded by the same dependency on OpenGL or GLU?

If not, I suppose I could compile Qt with software-openGL myself and use
that to compile octave with GUI support, right?

(I can understand why Ubuntu would not want to go there, software
emulated opengl on slow CPUs, affecting all Qt programs without need.)
