[PySide] Gone! (was: PySide 2.0.0.dev0 build issue)

[Christian Tismer]

Howdy,

the windows build issue is gone.
There is still a flaw in 'jom', but I have worked around that in cmake.

Also, PySide2 builds on Windows with Qt5.3 - Qt5.5 .

I am starting now to integrate some fixes from helpers that will make
PySide2 much more into a beta, soon ;-)

cheers -- Chris
