configure Qt 5.12.4 for Android (armv7a) with 'openssl-linked' fails to find OpenSSL libs

I'm trying to build Qt 5.12.4 (6e350aff34545e7b41b07617c9152f81db735702) for Android armv7a (32-bit) with OpenSSL support.  I can build using the "-openssl-runtime" flag and "OPENSSL_PREFIX" if I put the OpenSSL libs inside a "lib/" directory which I manually create.  However, when I would rather build with static libs via "-openssl-linked" and this fails...

It's not clear to me whether Qt now supports OpenSSL 1.1, so I've tried both 1.0.2 and 1.1.1 to no avail.
