Interesting thing is that errors are different for each one. I tried to build and to install without any changes, just source from qt.io first.

Fixed by https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/172072/. Will be in 5.6.3 + 5.7.1 + 5.8.0.

Probably https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-55915? The fix is in 5.6.2 and 5.8.0 but won't be in 5.7 until 5.7.2.
