This is unfortunately a known issue: 

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=104436

I don't know whether we'll manage to fix this for the 5.0 release ... If you don't need qtwebkit, just remove qtwebkit, qtwebkit-examples-and-demos directories before running configure.

We're trying to support any recent one (gcc 4.7), but the toolchain of choice is mingw-builds: See http://qt-project.org/wiki/MinGW-64-bit .
