Looks good. I suggest you push.

I have a slight preference for you to push the patch. I think that we go
through those version guards and remove them after LyX requires a
minimum Qt version with the fix. That is, once we require at least Qt
5.15.1 as a version, then we can remove this specific instance of the
guards. We won't require 5.15.1 for a long time (I hope!). If you have a
preference to revert the original commit though, we should discuss it.
Nice work getting a Qt bug fixed!
