[MeeGo-touch-dev] MTF styling error.

[Sergiy.Dubovik at nokia.com]

Here is the answer.

As I said earlier it's related to QFile bug in QT. Somehow the fix didn't make it into official release. Don't know why.
When this problem happen meegotouch can't parse that style so it skips it. As a result you see "meegotouccccccccc" errors.
The limit is about 28kb (this has something to do with buffers so it could be that on your system size can be different), if your style is bigger then that it will not work.
Split the style into pieces or wait for an updated QT.

Sergiy
