Problem building Qt5.2 from source on Ubuntu 13.10 with gcc 4.8.1 in C++11 mode

[KannanRamaswamy]

I am getting the below error in qtscript which appears to be the same as QTBUG 27029
(https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-27029). Is there a workaround I can apply?

The full command line with the error is at http://pastebin.com/zwgHuSM5 as it was over the 6000 char post limit. The relevant error message is below:
