Thanks for taking the time to fix these issues! The patches look fine, so please

Sometimes dependencies are complex and the author usually knows best in which
order patches need to get merged.

Sure it is:-)

I am not sure the <QtModule>_INCLUDE_DIR is readily available in Creator though.
But anything in Tools>Options>Build & Run>Qt Versions>Whatever version>Details
should be easy to add.
