The recent enabling of lcms in our libmng introduced the lcms dependency 
to QtGui. So qmake would generate correct makefiles for applications, I 
added "-llcms" to Qt's configure script invocation. This causes "-llcms" 
to appear everywhere, even where it's not needed. As you experience 
shows, this is not always harmless.

To avoid this problem, I have added -llcms just to the relevant project 
file. This puts -llcms only where it is needed, i.e., in combination 
with -lmng.

Could you try this out?
