When building a project in VS then it would cause a rebuild
under certain situations even though a rebuild is not
actually required.
The root problem exists in VS in the following configuration:
1. A file has a custom build tool specified
2. The custom build tool has additional dependencies
3. The input file is specified in the additional dependencies
4. There are files in the additional dependency list
This is the situation with form files in Qt that have include hints
specified in Qt Designer. The include hints get specified in the
additional dependencies for the custom build tool.
What happens is that VS will process files in the additional
dependency list differently based on where they appear in the list
relative to the input file.
If a dependency appears before the input file, VS will require the
file as a build input. If you just specify a file name, VS looks in
the project directory (and only the project directory) for that file.
You have to specify the path (relative or absolute) to get VS to look
elsewhere. If VS does not find the dependency, VS thinks the project
is out of date (since the missing dependency is a required build
input) and will rebuild the input file.
If the dependency appears after the input file and the file doesn't
exist, VS does not include the dependency as a build input. Since the
file is not a build input, no rebuild is required.

the logic in the configures was even trying to express that, only that
nowadays we always ship syncqt, so the tests were kinda pointless.
this frees us from the perl dependency for non-developer builds of
packaged modules (except for webkit, which needs almost every scripting
language on earth anyway).
obviously, this requires that the packaging scripts run syncqt in the
source dir before tarring up the sources. note that for repositories
other than qtbase, the -version argument needs to be passed to syncqt.
