some notes to build the gui with static qt5
QMAKE=/toolchain/qt5-static/bin/qmake TARGET=demolib-vpn ./build.sh
some attempts at mxe cross-compilation
======================================
We really would like to have cross-compilation working.
I tried mxe, it looks the most promising way to, at least, get the binaries
working. (Cross-compiling a static version of QtIFW might prove more difficult,
though).
these two links were useful for me in my attempts:

I tried the mxe project stretch packages
* debs seem to be broken :(
* add this repo::
deb http://pkg.mxe.cc/repos/apt stretch main
* install this package::
mxe-x86_64-w64-mingw32.static-qt5
- I think I tried with cmake. should try again now that I went the qmake route.
- Compiling things with the instructions above got me further. However, I only compiled a very simple qt app - did not try with all the QML/foo libraries. It should not be much harder...
- I had to patch some files in mxe to workaround a couple of issues (basically editing include paths). TODO -- dig those patches and include them here.
