Hi !

Thank you for the detailed testings. As HelloWorldApp is working, we can 
eliminate sysdepCallMethod. However, I don't see how qtopia may 
interfere in initProperties. Is it possible for you to have gdb precise 
stacktrace of the point where it gets a NPE in the native code ? I don't 
see why it should be a setProperty call, but maybe something more system 
dependent.

Cheers,

Guilhem.
