[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #40252] Make GUI compatible with both Qt4 and Qt5

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #40252 (project octave):

I revisited this bug again for a little bit tonight. I made some headway, and
finally got Octave to build against Qt 5.3.

Attaching a diff of all the quick-n-dirty changes I had to make. Some of these
are backwards compatible with Qt 4, some of these are new or renamed functions
in Qt 5, some will need #ifdefs, etc. But it does compile and the GUI does
come up.

I'm willing to pick this up again and work out the remaining issues, just
wanted to share what I have for now.

Also worth noting that I had to manually mess with the include and library
flags. So configure.ac will need some work as well, not included in this diff
at all yet.
