[Interest] Compiling Qt5 on Windows fails with Project Warning

[Philipp Berger]

tl;dr:

Compilation fails if -static is used. Error message:

Project WARNING: Plugin class name could not be determined for qwindows
plugin.

I tried building with -shared and it works. But I'd like to have a
static build. Anyone? Qt Build-Script Team? Please?
