[bt-devel] Using QSharedPointer instead of boost pointer

[Martin Gruner]

Eeli,

you are right. Somehow I managed to completely forget about the consequences 
of the change. I'm sorry!

In SVN, the change is reverted (we depend on boost again), and I added a patch 
file to be applied later (in a few months) that contains all the changes I 
made.
