Unable to configure Qt for static building

Essentially this is a repost of this question which was never answered. I am trying to set up Qt for static linking following these instructions. So far, all I've done is go to where my Qt version is, and run 

configure -static

I get some output, ending in:

Sources are in..............C:\QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.8.0\msvc2010
Build is done in............C:\QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.8.0\msvc2010

WARNING: Using static linking will disable the use of plugins.
     Make sure you compile ALL needed modules into the library.
Running syncqt...
I couldn't find a pro file for QtCore module
syncqt failed, return code 9

Please help

I'm in the same situation of user963258 and I get the same error. I deleted syncqt.* from qt bin folder, but I then get the same error

qmake gives code 3 when attempting to configure qt for static building

Why Qt4.8 has so many issues?

It's a known issue compiling Qt 4.8.0 from source. Just delete syncqt.* in qt bin folder :
