make fails on fresh install of QT SDK
I googled for a solution to this problem (see errors below) and it seems to be related to the mingw path, but I don’t have anything about mingw in my path variable. This is a fresh install of QT Creator (2.20) QT (4.7.4) 32 bit on a Windows 7 machine

This shouldn’t be happening with the new version of Qt SDK but there was similar problem with older version. According to this article [qt-devnotes.blogspot.com] the problem might be related to PATH environment variable. Please check the provided link for details.
