Maybe I didn't explain myself properly: I can compile it with Visual Studio 
(even with Visual Studio 2010).
My problem is that the built libraries cannot be used by Qt, as I'm getting 
linker errors; after some googling I came to the conclusion that I should not 
expect to use a library built with Visual Studio with other compilers (Qt 
uses MinGW under Windows).

So I need to somehow build it using MinGW (I think). Is compiling with Visual 
Studio the only available option under Windows?
Maybe I'm even wrong about the mixing of libraries from different compilers.
