No, is not.
It contains the correctm path.
As I said, if I append the DOCSTRING, QT_INCLUDE_DIR  is also set to the 
correct values.
I know because I printed the values of all the involved variables (from the 
file beginning actually, otherwise I would have never located the problem 
exactly there)

I ommitted the details on how I concuded this because I wasted enough time 
finding the problem, now I can't waste even more time showing that I did not 
make any silly mistake like that.

Yes

Don't know and I don't care since this is defined after that.
