qmake 5.14.0 - linking behaviour changed, breaks build

Vadi2

I link to Hunspell in the following way on Windows:

    LIBS +=  \
        -llua51 \
        -lpcre-1 \
        -llibhunspell-1.6 \

qmake included in Qt 5.13.2 generated the following arguments which worked great:

[...] release\mudlet.exe @object_script.mudlet.Release  -llua51 -lpcre-1 C:\Qt\Tools\mingw730_32\lib\libhunspell-1.6.a

However qmake included in Qt 5.14.0 generates the following argument which fails to link - library not found:

mudlet.exe @object_script.mudlet  -llua51 -lpcre-1 -lhunspell-1.6.a

Is this a bug in qmake, and if so, how can I work around this regression?

That looks like QTBUG-80792 or one of the related bugreports.

5.14.1 contains the first fixes.

Looks like more fixes are needed.
