No. It's pointless since Qt 3 has reached end-of-life.

You can come up with the patch on your own and add to the Qt 3 qt-copy, in 
the KDE servers. And hope that distributions remember to rebuild and 
apply the patch in their next releases.

Also note that switching from a simple increment to an atomic one is a 
performance penalty that could be considerable for Qt 3 / KDE 3 
applications.

As for locking, it is defintely a bad, bad idea.
