MSVC build of qt3dphysics fails with -release

Building Qt with MSVC with -release flag set fails soon after encountering an error in qt3dphysics, specifically within PhysX:

fatal error C1189: #error:  Exactly one of NDEBUG and _DEBUG needs to be defined! 

The toolchain is MSVC 2019 x64. The configure options are:

configure -prefix D:/Qt/6.5.2/static_msvc64 -static -static-runtime -release -opensource -confirm-license -nomake tools -nomake examples -nomake tests -skip qtwebengine -qt-doubleconversion -qt-pcre -qt-zlib -qt-harfbuzz -qt-libpng -qt-libjpeg -qt-sqlite -qt-tiff -qt-webp 

Since I don't need that module anyway I just skipped it with -skip qt3dphysics, and everything worked fine from there on.

However it's sad that Qt can't be compiled with -release. Compiling both release and debug libs takes an eternity or two. And since (in my particular case) it's for a static build of Qt, it doesn't make much sense to have debug libs there.

There's more info about that in this github issue: https://github.com/NVIDIAGameWorks/PhysX/issues/301
