Can you please post a (really minimal) project that exposes the problem?
I have a hard time reproducing your troubles. I.e. given
-- foo.cpp --
int foo() { return 42; }
-- foo.pro --
TEMPLATE = lib
CONFIG += staticlib
SOURCES += foo.cpp
-- bar.cpp --
int foo();
int bar() { return foo() + 1; }
-- bar.pro --
TEMPLATE = lib
CONFIG += staticlib
SOURCES += bar.cpp
-- main.cpp --
int bar();
int main() { return bar(); }
-- main.pro --
SOURCES += main.cpp
PRE_TARGETDEPS = libfoo.a libbar.a
LIBS += -L$$PWD -lbar -lfoo
-- all.pro --
TEMPLATE = subdirs
SUBDIRS = foo.pro bar.pro main.pro
CONFIG += ordered
running
qmake -r && make
followed by
touch foo.cpp && make
rebuilds libfoo.a and main.

Again, please make this a minimal, reproducible example.

There is such thought, but as the gain would be minimal and there are
more pressing needs all over the place it ranks pretty low.
This might change, of course, if someone would come up with a
ready-to-integrate implementation ;-)
