FreeBSD requires special configure options to make KVIrc work.

I have found that at least the following two options are necessary:

	-with-qt-name=NAME
		Unless you have installed qt by compiling it from scratch , you probably
		need this option. The standard FreeBSD installation changes the
		qt.2.* library name to qt2

Since the FreeBSD gethostbyname() call is not thread safe , you may have
problems with resolving hostnames; random problems might appear:
from simple stalls of the resolver thread to plain segfaults.
You may have to use the "Force sync DNS lookups" option to use the blocking
(non-threaded) DNS resolver.
