According to TrollTech, Qt/E provides a subset of the standard Qt API,
so you can run many Qt applications with Qt/E by just recompiling
against Qt/E.  In other words, people may be able to get away with
linking against libqpe instead of libqt while cross-compiling and have
things run correctly.  I haven't tried this personally, so actually I
don't know if works or not.

Hope this helps...
