There is tons of compiled Windows software on the openSUSE Build 
Service. Granted, they are packaged in RPMs. But they really are the 
compiled things just needing to be unpacked somewhere. You will find QT 
and more.

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/windows:/mingw:/win64/openSUSE_12.1/noarch/

There are 32-bit versions in a parallel directory. Don't be put off by 
the RPM format. The files can easily be unpacked. I see that 7-zip 
(http://www.7-zip.org/) claims to support RPM files. I actually install 
them in Linux via my Linux package manager, and then can easily 
repackage the tree for various uses. Doing this keeps the Windows and 
Linux version in sync, making cross platform support so very much easier.
