+How to use the Opie standalone buildsystem to develop against an OpenEmbedded tree:
+
+a) Grab BitBake and OpenEmbedded (see GettingStarted on the openembedded.org Wiki)
+b) Have a probperly working setup and edited local.conf w/ at least MACHINE and DISTRO set
+c) bitbake qte
+
+d) make clean in the Opie tree
+e) Choose "OpenEmbedded w/ OE build dir set below (TARGET_OE) (Option 5)" as target machine
+f) Specify your OpenEmbedded build dir, i.e. /local/pkg/oe/tosa
+g) Answer all the rest - you may want to add more include paths pointing to inside the oe
+   build tree for some additional dependencies, i.e. for libsword, libipkg, libxine, and libsqlite3.
+h) make menuconfig and sanity check your answers
+i) build
+
+j) copy the binaries over or mount your build tree via NFS
+   and export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<path/to/oe/staging/libdir>:<path/to/opie/libdir>
+   and export PATH=<path/to/oe/staging/bindir>:<path/to/opie/bindir>
+
+Note: It's pretty ad-hoc but it seems to work :)
