Maybe this can help others in the same situation:

%> QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=kde /path/to/MaintenanceTool.app/Contents/MacOS/MaintenanceTool &

seems to work (probably anything other than "kde" and "cocoa" will do). It forces Qt to use a fallback QPA plugin; the app will look like a Win95 application but seems to have access to all platform functionality it needs to run.
