Oh, right, thanks. I was seeing the CONFIG+=debug_and_release under  
the QMake step, thinking this was the problem, and completely missing  
the make step. In retrospect, of course, that doesn't make sense, as  
all that does is tell QMake to make both debug and release makefiles -  
it doesn't tell make which one to use. Changing the make step worked.  
Thanks again!
