qmake also has hard coded paths inside and we depend on qt.conf
overrides to set correct paths when building on host with different
paths to sysroot.

I think that only better solution is to patch ruby/qmake to remove the
support for "default" paths hard coded in binary and to always show an
error when correct paths aren't supplied by env variable or some cmdline
param.
