You might have upgraded from 10.11 and you may have not tried to recompile qt5
or qscintilla2 on 10.12 (or more precisely with Xcode8). Both are known to not
compile, see e.g. https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/5619. However,
patches have been proposed upstream. It's hopefully just a matter of days....
