I'd say there is no good way, but a tolerable one, and that is just what the
bug reporter suggested. This:

  QString msg =3D i18ncp("@info",
                       "in 1 hour %2 minutes' time",
                       "in %1 hours %2 minutes' time",
                        mins/60, mins%60);

would be replaced with something like:

  QString hourfmt =3D i18ncp("@item:intext inserted into 'in ... time' belo=
w",
                           "1 hour", "%1 hours", mins/60);
  QString minfmt =3D i18ncp("@item:intext inserted into 'in ... time' below=
",
                          "1 minute's", "%1 minutes'", mins/60);
  QString msg =3D i18nc("@info %1 and %2 are the two previous messages",
                      "in %1 %2 time", hourfmt, minfmt);
