I thought these lines include the 'tools' PACKAGECONFIG:
qtbase.inc:
...
PACKAGECONFIG[tools] = "-make tools,-nomake tools"
...
PACKAGECONFIG_DEFAULT ?= "dbus udev evdev widgets tools libs"

PACKAGECONFIG ?= " \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_RELEASE} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_DEFAULT} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_OPENSSL} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_GL} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_FB} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_X11} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_FONTS} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_SYSTEM} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_MULTIMEDIA} \
     ${PACKAGECONFIG_DISTRO} \
"
But maybe the PACKAGECONFIG is overridden somewhere and I missed it or I 
got the whole PACKAGECONFIG thing wrong. Is there a possibility to check 
the actually used PACKAGECONFIG or the qt5 configure command altogether?

Peter
