It turns out this bug was caused by modularization,
which created the situation where members of the Qt
namespace are in different modules. Most are in QtCore,
but a few are in QtGui.
qdoc was creating a namespace node for the Qt namespace
in the node tree for QtCore, and another namespace node
in the node tree for QtGui. This meant that there were
two NamespaceNodes for the Qt namespace. Correctly, only
one of these nodes contained the text for the \namespace
command for the Qt namespace. This was the namespace node
that was being used to create the HTML reference page for
the Qt namespace.
Unfortunately, the Qt namespace node in the tree for QtGui
was not being merged into the Qt namespace node in QtCore,
so some of the members of the Qt namespace were not being
shown on the reference page.
This update teches qdoc how to merge namespace nodes to
ensure that all the members appear on the reference page
for the namespace. There can be a namespace node for the
namespace xxx in any number of modules, but they will all
be merged into the namespace node for namespace xxx that
contains the qdoc comment for \namespace xxx.
