There is an extended qt ico file handler in 
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/kdesupport/kdewin/tools/png2ico/, so it may

If [1] is not usable or is currently too much work I suggest to add the 
icotool to  the kdewin package 
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/kdesupport/kdewin/tools/, which contains 
already similar tools.
