I've resolved both of these issues now. Any Qt5 module inside or outside 
qtbasae.git can do 

CONFIG += cmake_files

to generate the cmake config files. I tested that with qtxmlpatterns.git. I 
couldn't get other qt5 modules to build.

I added a test to the branch too.

Hopefully I will be able to put it through gerrit soon.

Thanks,
