I don't know if it'd be possible to squeeze this in for RHEL 9.2, but it would be nice if we could, since it's such a small and simple fix.

If any fix is produced it will land in CentOS Stream first and be reflected in a subsequent future RHEL minor release after that.

Moving this to Qt in line with bug 1954359

(This may also require rebuilding qt5-qtwayland?
 but I guess first an acceptable fix is needed)
