Creating a static QApplication and using QThread's EventLoop with signals and slots doesn't seem to work well in the context of plugins that can be loaded and unloaded dynamically. In particular, I encountered some problems with Windows VST hosts where the first plugin you create works OK. But if you delete it and then create a second one, it locks up. It appears that there is some static flag getting set deep in QThread's EventLoop processing that basically just makes all threads exit.
