[Interest] [Development] Qt5: Problem connecting QTimer::timeout() to lambda

Hi,
It is the QPrivateSignal that is breaking it.
It is only possible to connect to functor (lambda are functor) if they have
the same number of arguments. The number need to match exactly, and it is not
possible to omit any. (so you may not omit the QPrivateSignal argument)
Using C++11 new SFINAE rules, it should be possible to change that.
One hack could be to remove the QPrivateSignal type from the Argument list in
the second template parametter of QFunctorSlotObject.
