We think this is fixed.  If a Qt 5.4 user has a problem in the future they can file a new report.

I switched to Qt-5.7, the last precompiled Qt for RHEL 6.x in the mean time. I switched back to Qt-5.4, but in the mean time it seems there are new Qaction issues for Qt-5.4 as in bug #60298, or I do something wrong with switching between parallel Qt installations, or something else, anyway I cannot immediately judge unfortunately whether te patch is effective.

I pushed the following changeset.  Could someone confirm that it works on systems that have a Qt version < 5.7?

OK, I think I can provide a replacement if it is not available.

recent dev versions fail to build with Qt 5.4.
Probably due to http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/3d34b70b5a49
