[Qt-interest] qmake: Changing the destination directory of linker output

[Jeffrey Brendecke]

Creating symbolic links of the project file and the sources into the external 
build directory and building from there is a viable alternative.

However, in case it may be of use later, I would be interested if it is 
possible to configure qmake to change the target directory of linker output.
