error: Invalid macro invocation found in \qt-installer-framework-3.0.6\src\sdk\translations\Makefile.Release line 60

I need to sign the uninstaller(maintenance tool) for my application.

I found this has been done in the branch 3.1.0  Qt bug-reports

So I tried to build the QTIFW 3.1.0 cloned from the git but it failed, again I tried with Qt 3.0.6 source downloaded from QT Official release. In both cases I get macro invocation error in makefile.release

error: Invalid macro invocation found in G:\qt-installer-framework-3.0.6\src\libs\7zip\Makefile.Release line 589

error: Invalid macro invocation found in G:\qt-installer-framework-3.0.6\src\sdk\translations\Makefile.Release line 60

line 588 of makefile.release has the following :

{win\CPP\Windows}.cpp{release\}.obj::
 $(CXX) -c $(CXXFLAGS) $(INCPATH) -Forelease\ @<<
 $<
<<
{win\CPP\Windows}.cc{release\}.obj::
 $(CXX) -c $(CXXFLAGS) $(INCPATH) -Forelease\ @<<
 $<
<<

However, I can build QTIFW 3.0.4 successfully.

FYI I used Statically built Qt 5.6.2 with below configuration :

configure -prefix “E:\QtStatic\QtBinaries” -release -static -static-runtime -platform win32-msvc2013 -accessibility -no-opengl -no-icu -no-sql-sqlite -no-qml-debug -nomake examples -nomake tests -skip qtactiveqt -skip qtenginio -skip qtlocation -skip qtmultimedia -skip qtserialport -skip qtquickcontrols -skip qtscript -skip qtsensors -skip qtwebsockets -skip qtxmlpatterns -skip qt3d

Please provide clear documentation for building Qt statically and QTIFW from source. Please provide steps for signing the maintenance tool in QTIFW as well.

Thank You.
