Quicktime framework is used for color space conversion only. And on OSX
Your are always using quartz compositor at some point, OpenGL, 
Quicktime, Quartz 2d, Quickdraw.

btw Diego what is going on with Arpi... My account is still disabled, I 
have stuff to commit before we
go back in the same trouble we had.
