two words: qmake sucks.
patches are welcome, but be warned that if you supply one you out
yourself as a masochist.
and, btw, qmake is semi-officially slated for end-of-life, but nothing
concrete is planned yet.

qmake is surprisingly flexible - you could even write configure scripts
with it. so there is no need to hard-code anything. if you formulate
what *exactly* you want (say, in sh, perl or some pseudocode) i can give
you a qmake "translation".

no, you could make a function for adding a static lib which would add it
to both the link lib and the pre-deps:
defineReplace(asl) {
PRE_TARGETDEPS += $$munge($$1)
export(PRE_TARGETDEPS)
return($$1)
}
LIBS += $$asl(foobar)
or something similar ...
and, fwiw, creator's own build system is a bonanza of, uhm, "advanced
qmake examples".
