I don't know of any way to easily achieve this using a single .pro
file. Thinking about it, you need to create object files multiple
times (like one file with your define set, another one without the
define) but unless you add more magic to put objects in different
folders those will conflict.
But why do you want to do this with a single pro file at the same
time? Just build out-of-tree, use something like I mentioned earlier
and have two build trees along with your sources, each one configured
as you need. Then you can just call "make -C build1; make -C build2"
and are done -- and even put that in a small build script.
