That's a problem with the Qt headers.
You can change pqFormBuilder.h
from
#include <QtUiTools/QUiLoader>
to
#include <QUiLoader>

That change isn't in yet because some dashboards are on older CMake's  
that can't find QUiTools correctly.
The Mac dashboards would probably be fine if we put a condiational  
around it for the Mac.
