A quick followup: the Qt bug was fixed upstream, and Timo integrated the
patch in silo 5. This now renders the above workaround useless
(successfully verified with webbrowser-app now rebuilt in silo 5, hopefully
true for all other applications that use String.split() and
String.replace() with REs).
