QApplication::layoutDirection always returns Qt::LeftToRight on Symbian

QApplication::layoutDirection seems to be always returning Qt::LeftToRight on Symbian. Attached is a screenshot taken when running the following application with System layout direction set to RTL.

#include <QtGui>
#include <QtCore>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);

QMainWindow mw;
QLabel l(&mw);
QString dir;

if (a.layoutDirection() == Qt::RightToLeft)

{ dir = "Direction=Qt::RightToLeft"; }

else

{ dir = "Direction=Qt::LeftToRight"; }

l.setText(dir);
l.setGeometry(0,30,300,30);
l.show();
mw.showMaximized();

return a.exec();
}
