Your given failure maybe irrelevant or your are missing the real failure later on
(or it is a problem with your build host/setup)...

The only failure I get with your defconfig is while compiling
build/qt5webengine-5.6.3/src/3rdparty/chromium/ui/gfx/codec/jpeg_codec.cc,
which can be fixed by the suggested buildroot-2019.02.9 patch (see [1]).

With this patch applied qt5webengine-5.6.3 builds fine here...

Peter
