You are mistaken.The GPL and the commercial versions are identical 
code-wise. The only difference is in the licensing.

You can develop Qt software free of charge if the software you develop 
is released under the GPL license. If you develop closed source 
software, Trolltech offers commercial licenses.

So there, Qt is *NOT* GPL and you have to buy Their license if you plan 
to develop commercial software.
