Interesting.  Perhaps you could abstract this to a general frame buffer
support (which could be implemented any number of ways...) so that we
can make use of it elsewhere, e.g. by the microwindows code.  That way
one could configure a synthetic target with microwindows + qtfb and 
expect the results to be indicative of microwindows + XYZfb on real
hardware.

As for the license, I don't see that putting the exception in there 
hurts, especially since it looks like you wrote the code from scratch.
