I've built Qt Handles on MacOS X, and it worked for me.

It is also working on Windows (the binaries on sourceforge include it).

I recently asked Michael Goffioul about including qthandles in the Octave 4.0 
release.  He indicated that the only thing preventing him from integrating 
qthandles into Octave's code base was lack of his time.
