Can't build qtassistant on RHEL6 if Mantid is also installed

Description

The qt assistant help file generation is preventing this at present. The error was: 

  File "/home/tr9/TestingMantid/Code/Mantid/docs/qtassistant/fitfunctions_help.py", line 20, in process_function
    if func.numParams() <= 0:
AttributeError: 'IFunction' object has no attribute 'numParams'
make[2]: *** [bin/./qtassistant/fitfunctions.qhp] Error 1

This probably boils down to it looking at the installed version, which may or may not let things through depending on how old it is.

This is on ​bugfix/6798_qtassistant_installed.

To test try building mantid on a machine that already has mantid installed.

That did it - though it took me a while to reproduce the error (turned out the installation had to happen before running cmake on a clean checkout.
