Spyder stopped working with Qt4.6

The work going on in the master branch to use newstyle signals / slots has caused Spyder to not launch on RHEL6 which uses Qt4.6.
This is because the directoryLoaded signal on QFileSystemModel was introduced in Qt4.7.
With the old style signals on Qt4.6 this signal would never be emitted... but with the newstyle signals it cannot make the connection and Spyder errors out before starting up.

Should either fix this or update the requirements.
Currently the requirements list PyQt4.6 but do not mention the underlying Qt requirement.
I can confirm that Spyder launches on 4.8, I don't have a 4.7 system to test on.

File "/home/eric/dev/spyder/spyderlib/widgets/explorer.py", line 120, in setup_view
self.fsmodel.directoryLoaded.connect(
AttributeError: 'QFileSystemModel' object has no attribute 'directoryLoaded'

Thanks for reporting. I'll fix it so that Spyder keeps working on RedHat/CentOS.
