use -fpermissive, and these errors will change to warnings.  You can set 
CXXFLAGS, or edit settings.pro and change the QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_RELEASE.  
You will have to edit fifowriter.* ala a previous post of mine.  If you 
don't understand that post (fifowriter has changed recently), I can make 
a patch (but I don't know how).
