As far as I know KDE4 doesn't have problem as KLibLoader in KDE4 does
not use libtool files.

However KDE4/Qt4 has other problems with Thai, which make it difficult
to say that Thai language is supported in KDE4.

Patches to fix those problems are gathered here:
http://www.suriyan.in.th/development . We did send them to Qt developers
and post to http://bugs.kde.org:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156558 (libthai dynamic loading)
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156561 (Kate issues)
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=156071 (Konsole issues)

Qt4 patches are at
http://linux.thai.net/viewvc/viewvc.cgi/software/qt/x11-free-4.3.1/.

Is it better to file the bug here in Launchpad and hope that maybe the
changes get propagated to upstream somehow?

Advice are very welcome.
