The fact is that in my case it would make my library more
dificult to use if I lose the use of the method emit().

That is the point of all this silliness.  It would take KDE
folks less than an hour to remove the silly macros and make
the others into qt_signals and qt_slots.  Instead someone
is willing to quibble over 1 or 2 lines for far greater
time defending the use of macros in a C++ library!  Which
is more benificial, fixing the macros thus removing all critism
or spended (combinded) hours writing letters over how the problem 
doesn't exist?  Instead this seems to have become a matter of pride 
and project sovernty.
