Comment (by MarcusCalhoun-Lopez):

 I suppose it would be possible for {{{qt5.get_default_name}}} to return an
 invalid Qt version for older systems.\\
 However, that would complicate the later code (e.g. {{{if ${qt5.name} ne
 "" ...}}}).\\
 I would prefer to avoid that if possible.

 Currently, if a user tried to install a port which depends on Qt 5 on an
 older system, the port fails during {{{pre-fetch}}} of qt55-qtbase.\\
 Is there a better place to fail?
