That makes sense, not sure where I was going with that.

WindowsSDK is needed to provide Qt with the OpenGL bindings.  On my
machine, GlU32.Lib and OpenGL32.Lib are located in C:/Program
Files/Microsoft SDKs/Windows/v7.1/Lib and adding this path to the
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH variable has solved this for me.  See [1].  Have you
tried this, or found anything else that could elucidate the problem?
