Enabling stereoscopic view in OpenGL in Qt

I want to use stereoscopic 3D in a C++ Qt application in an QOpenGLWidget. The code I currently have is:

QSurfaceFormat format;
format.setDepthBufferSize(24);
//format.setOption(QSurfaceFormat::StereoBuffers, true);
format.setStereo(true);
setFormat(format);

But that code is causing a EXC_BAD_ACCESS as soon as I try to display the Window.

I have tried with both setStereo and setOption as you can see above, but both crash.

How could I know if stereoscopic 3D is supported to avoid calling those lines when it is not?

I wrote a rather simple OpenGL program to test "can I use stereo on this computer" it should be easy to build/run with CMake and Visual Studio

It doesn't use Qt, but it will tell you if OpenGL Stereo really-really-works at the moment
