    Description

      If source directory is called "qt-debug-and-release\src" and build directory is called "qt-debug-and-release\build", build fails with the following error:

      16:40:02 	link /NOLOGO /DYNAMICBASE /NXCOMPAT /BASE:0x67000000 /DEBUG /DLL /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS /VERSION:5.5 /MANIFEST:embed /OUT:..\..\lib\Qt5Cored.dll @C:\Windows\TEMP\nm2C90.tmp
16:40:02 LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'qtpcred.lib'

      The reason is that the build system creates directory "qt-debug-and-debug\build\qtbase\lib" and stores qtpcred.lib there.
