The makefile shouldn't be under version control at all. You should  
put a script (or separate Makefile) which runs qmake on your project  
file, and which you run after checking it out of Darcs. Optionally,  
you can add running this script (and removing it from the source  
tree) in the 'predist' preference, such that 'darcs dist' does all  
that is needed.

cheers,
