I'm going to need some guidance with this. I cannot even seem to get qDebug output from `QMakeProjectManager::includeDirectories()` or `QMakeProjectManager::hasBuildInfo()`, and what's more, qmake slips in the `-F` option to point to Qt's own framework directory at some point *after* the project .pro file has been parsed. IOW, the option shows up in the toplevel Makefile but apparently nowhere else.

The framework directories are also added to a new list in the result structure. I presume that this is a prerequisite for adding them to the (lib)clang arguments of the clang parser.

The `-iframework /opt/local/libexec/qt5/Library/Frameworks` argument added by cmake to each compiler invocation is detected and put to use; Qt header files are found in the frameworks without a wrapper Qt5 header directory (`/opt/local/include/qt5`) added to the header search path. Header files from the system SDKs are found too
