Sorry, by that I meant to say "no chance of getting a fix in", since it 
depends on fixing the Microsoft STL and I don't expect they're very 
interested. Their first and foremost priority is the VC++ compiler.

But the second part of your proposal is easy: use either cl or gcc or clang 
(with either libstdc++ or libc++), two combinations of which are supported by 
Qt on Windows and I wouldn't be surprised if the rest using those compilers 
also worked.

✓ VC++ with MS STL      (officially supported)
✓ gcc with libstdc++    (officially supported)
❓ gcc with libc++       (likely works)
❓ clang with libstdc++  (likely there are people using)
❓ clang with libc++     (likely works)
✗ clang-cl with MS STL  (currently broken)
❓❓ clang-cl with libc++ (no clue)
