<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman">I went to extras/contrib/bin. There is indeed a file called uic there (no file extension). When I opened it in a text editor, I see as the first line:</FONT></P>
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman">ELF/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman">It definitely isn't any kind of executable script (clearly not really a text file), nor is it a file that's executable on a Windows platform.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT FACE="Times New Roman">For kicks, I renamed it uic.exe, found that it indeed won't execute (in my Cygwin bash).</FONT>
