Comment (by rjvbertin@…):

 First of, it's not my intention to argue for a prolonged existence of
 +exclusive. But you're right, without a possibility to check what port
 variants are installed, qt5-mac can only do the same kind of check its and
 port:qt4-mac's dependents do to determine whether qt5 (or qt4) have been
 installed with the debug variant. That is, check for tell-tale file
 presence. The same applies to qt4-mac, of course.

 But again, as far as I'm concerned this is a temporary situation, one that
 I in fact only provided for testing purposes and for potential users who
 prefer to stick just to the current, exclusive version, for whatever
 reason.
