    Description

      uThe nagging screen dialog seems to show only fixed amount of characters for licensee name. This happens with evaluation QtCreator built against Qt5 (5.2.0-beta1). The amount of characters displayed is 7.

      See attached screenshots.

      In the first screen shot the libQt5Core.so is opened with hex editor and the
      qt_lcnsuser field contains "fuu" as licensee name. Zero padding after that.

      In the second screenshot the nagging screen dialog is shown with 7 characters, "foo□□□□"

      Same behavior is seen with licensee names in length over 7 characters, the
      name is truncated after 7 characters.

      Quickly checking the place where the licensee name is loaded is here:

      src/corelib/kernel/qtcore_eval.cpp

      QLibraryInfo::licensee()
