[QBS] QBS not compiling with our compiled Qt version

[olivier musse]

Hi Christian,

After testing different cases  we found the bug.
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-42959
The  install step clear the prl so that it is impossible to use Qbs with 
a compiled version of Qt.

Regards

Olivier
