There is something funny going on with your copy of the ports tree.  My
copy is currently at r450422 and I looked at Makefile for the first two
ports that you list and don't see USES=execinfo.  In my copy of the
tree, Makefile for each of those two ports was last changed by r450351,
which removed the USES=.

%svn diff -c 450351 /usr/ports/devel/qt5-core/Makefile

Checking https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/devel/qt5-core/Makefile,
I see that it was changed again today with r450556, but that was only a
PORTREVISION bump and didn't undo the removal of USES=.
