That's bad news :(

Qt 5.15 is requested by too many people, and I really don't want to wait
until 5.15.2 because that may be a quite close to our transition freeze
(2021-01-12).

But if we land 5.15.1 now (in a few weeks), then it will be easier and
faster to update to 5.15.2 whenever it gets released, if it is before the
transition freeze.

In any case, I have subscribed to upstream bug and keeping an eye on it —
if a concrete patch is identified then I will cherry-pick it to our 5.15
packaging.
