and it works - now building natively with qt5.5 and mingw 4.9.2.

QtWebKit is pre-built and inlcuded in the official Qt package.
the compiler is just a newer GCC as far as i can tell - still 32bit
dwarf, but i *did install it* since i don't want to deal with possible
issues between 4.8.2 (the old one from Qt5.3) and this one.

one thing i forgot to mention that my cmake command line includes:
-DNO_DOCS=1 -DNO_MARBLE=1 -DNO_TESTS=1

couldn't get these to work out-of-the-box when switched to cmake, but
they did work with qmake...so this is technically a cmake issue.
i skipped them for the fact that i don't need them for testing locally.

i guess i have to try to make them work now.

if it's not an installer just zip the deployment folder with the EXE, DLLs, etc.
i have the proper set of tools that can be used to hunt most
errors...it usually boils down to "how much time we can spend on
debugging it, before switching to option B, if there is an option B.".
