Hi Anders,
according to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh849809%28v=wps.620%29.aspx, Split-Path should work with 
PowerShell 2.0 onwards.
What do you get when typing $PSVersionTable.PSVersion in PowerShell? On my side I have version 3.0 and the 
windeployqt-to-nsis.ps1 script works fine.
Pascal.

PS C:\wireshark-git> $PSVersionTable.PSVersion

Major  Minor  Build  Revision
-----  -----  -----  --------
2      0      -1     -1

PS C:\wireshark-git> Split-Path

PS C:\wireshark-git> Split-Path

cmdlet Split-Path at command pipeline position 1
Supply values for the following parameters:
Path[0]: some\path\string\foo\bar
Path[1]: some\path\string\
Path[2]:
some\path\string\foo
some\path
PS C:\wireshark-git>

/Anders
