[Interest] Problem configuring Qt 5 on Windows

[andy fillebrown]

Why is the qmake step generating makefiles for all the example and
test projects?  I specified -nomake examples and -nomake tests.  I
wouldn't mind wasting a *little* time but this is turning into a lot
more than a little.  There are a lot of test projects.

Frustration level + 1.
