Substituting the 10.11 SDK from Xcode 7.3.1 eliminates the compile failure.

I'm pretty sure I've stumbled across fragments of instructions on how to install the 10.11 SDK in Xcode 8 in recent google searches. That could at least provide a temporary workaround until a better fix is found.

A patch has been proposed upstream: ​https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/172619/; I'll attach it to this ticket (it's already included in my port:qt5-kde but only tested on 10.9)

[mkae (Marko Käning)]

The patch fixed building qt5-kde on El Capitan 10.11.6 - containing only the 10.12 SDK.

Thanks, René, for investigating this!

[mamoll (Mark Moll)]

The patch fixes the build on MacOS Sierra 10.12 with 10.12 SDK.
