Hi there,
I've been taking care of the Qt 5.3 in my free evenings for a while, and
as I've just mentioned in another email thread the biggest blockers are
some infrastructural issues like PR #194088/QTBUG-40825 (installed Qt
headers and libraries are used instead of the ones being built when
building a newer Qt) and the fact that in 5.2.1 we pass -dont-process to
qtbase's configure script while it has been removed in 5.4 (I'm trying
to adapt to this early).
I _think_ I finally got to a point where these things have been taken
care of, and I'm going through all Qt ports fixing plists and refreshing
patches.
