Static build of Qt 5.1.1 on windows 7 - nmake and cl error

Question

I'm trying to build a static version of Qt 5.1.1 on Windows, but eventually receive a bunch of errors from nmake.

Following that topic - standalone exe in Qt I did the following:

• Downloaded Qt source code (http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.1/5.1.1/single/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1.zip)
• Configured executing the following: configure.bat -static -release -no-audio-backend -opengl desktop -opensource -confirm-license
• Ran nmake from MS Visual Studio command line.

The compilation process runs for some while, and eventually throws the following:

Has anyone met such case? I'm not sure why it's complaining about the Qt sources. Thanks!

Solved. I was building it with VS 2013, which actually doesn't support V8 module properly, so I got to use VS 2012, that worked fine with the following configuration: configure.bat -static -release -no-audio-backend -opengl desktop -opensource -nomake examples -confirm-license
