Argh, that broke it for older versions of MinGW :(

New fix is at :

https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,42363

(The core problem btw seemed to be once again that MinGW-w64 assumes you only want to use standard compliant functions when compiling with -std-c++11: A lot of common, but non-standardized methods just are not defined any more. This is nice in theory, but really kills you when trying to write code that should compile with MSVC, Unix headers and MinGW ....)
