based on the fact that the crash never seemed to have happened with default screen resolutions and also inspired by the only other getmem usage in the code I came up with this simple solution which seems to work just fine.
I do not understand why getmem seems to need this, but well - feel free to explain.
set(QT_USE_QTCORE TRUE)
find_package(Qt4 REQUIRED)
include(${QT_USE_FILE})
file(GLOB SRCS "*.c" "*.cpp")
file(GLOB PUBLIC_HEADERS "*.h")
qt4_wrap_cpp(MOC_SRCS "quazipfile.h")
set(SRCS ${SRCS} ${MOC_SRCS})
add_library(quazip STATIC ${SRCS})
