Thanks Chris,

you can work around that problem for the moment by adding the "-f  
Makefile.qtcreator" option yourself in the project settings: Click on  
the "Build&Run" mode button to the left, select your project, select  
"Build steps" in the list of build settings, select "Make" in the list  
of build steps, and add your -f option to the make arguments.
