It can be built by overriding the name of the Qscintilla2 library.
The Debian source package does this by patching the configure script,
see
https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-octave-team/octave/blob/master/debian/patches/qscintilla-rename.patch
I have also done this locally by passing the variable
octave_cv_lib_qscintilla to configure, as in
../configure --with-blas=blas octave_cv_lib_qscintilla=-lqscintilla2_qt5
which is how I am building 4.2.2 at this moment.
