The code paths that provide 10.6 support have been removed from Qt 5.4. The commits I am aware of are:

a198ce8d (QMacStyle)
fc11798e8 (QMacStyle)
9c92a18b (QCoreWLanEngine)

You could use the fusion style to avoid QMacStyle, but there would still be no guarantee that the application runs. Your other option then is to revert the changes that removes 10.6 support on your local copy of the Qt source code.
