by looking at that file (which is automatically generated by flex) I see

#ifndef YY_NO_UNISTD_H
/* Special case for "unistd.h", since it is non-ANSI. We include it way
 * down here because we want the user's section 1 to have been scanned 
first.
 * The user has a chance to override it with an option.
 */
#include <unistd.h>
#endif

thus it's possible to avoid to include unistd.h by adding

DEFINES += YY_NO_UNISTD_H

either in the .pro file, or, better to qmake command line; would you 
please try this?

thanks

P.S. it looks like building boost with msvc is fully supported:
