      Ideally it is possible to have a "device profile" outside of the Qt source tree eg:
      configure -embedded arm -device <PATH TO DEVICE PROFILE>
      such a device profile would include:

      • the qmake.conf and related files to use
      • any device specific plugins
      • any data to install into the device's image ( eg /etc/pointercal)

      At least
      1) configure should support a -xplatform argument that is an absolute path
      2) qmake can resolve in the custom qmake.conf includes of files in the source's mkspecs directory
      include (mkspecs/wincewm60professional-msvc2008/qmake.conf)
