Thiago, thanks for this response.  (And Giuseppe and Konstantin too).

I realize that it might be hard to be 100% confident in this, but DO YOU 
THINK that ...

... IF WE LEAVE OUT _QWebEngine_ from the Qt 5.7.0 (or Qt 5.6.2) source 
code build, we could build that with Visual Studio 2010 SP1 on Windows 
8.1 ... AND use that with the Qt 5.5.1 QtWebKit we've already built? 
(using that same VS version, of course).

  * 20,683,776  Qt5WebKit.dll
  * 93,192,192  Qt5WebKitd.dll
  *     238,080  Qt5WebKitWidgets.dll
  *     670,720  Qt5WebKitWidgetsd.dll

(The crux of that question being ... _with_ Visual Studio 2010 SP1 on 
Windows 8.1.  I'm imagining that the broad QWebEngine build is the thing 
that might require VS 2015, and maybe we could get away with VS 2010 
without that).
