Qt4 is not an option (and it already works fine.) I'm specifically 
trying to get Qt5 to work for video support on Windows (Qt4 lacks 
QtMultimedia).

I'll try shared libraries. Though it doesn't seem to allow me to just 
specify one single package? Keep everything static except Qt5? Is that 
possible?

I'll try just manually removing "-static" from the qt mk files.
