It appears that unicodeUFT8 is deprecated in Qt5, so code that use it 
should not compile under Qt5, at least that is what the Qt discussion 
forum thinks.
Still do not know what the case is for QPrinter, except that it resides 
in /Qt printsupport/.

If I can solve unicodeUTF8, then I can probably build Subsurface without 
printing facilities, since it looks like there is a preprocessor flag 
for enabling that.

Kind regards,
