tar.gz qt static

Works (from its own directory, untargz and cd ./opera9.5* and type 
./opera) in BL2 with glibc2.2.5


Complains about the lack of cups library but not about plugins.

I did not test the new features.

Keyboard navigation with q and a no longer works by default.  Preferences, 
advanced, shortcuts, enable single-key keyboard shortcuts.

Alt-P preferences, set it to not show images.  Much faster (via dialup).
Shift-I toggles loading of images.  See help, keyboard navigation.
The keyboard shortcuts are no longer displayed in the menus.

I seem to have crashed it while fooling around with Shift-I (toggles 
user mode) and Shift-G.  Not responding to any keyboard or mouse commands
including Ctrl-Q for quit.  Hourglass on pointer.

Wait for the final version unless you like beta testing.
