Why are you downgrading to C++11? Are there any problems with the newer 
versions? If so, we should know so we can fix them.

I thought we defaulted to libc++ even in non-C++11 case...

In fact, the 5.5 changelog says:

 - Support for the following platforms or toolchains is deprecated in Qt
   5.5 and will be removed as of Qt 5.6:
   * Apple OS X builds using GNU libstdc++

Qt 5.6 still supports 10.7.
