Hmm, when I worked on the CMake buildsystem files, I thought static-and-shared
was the default on Mac (or maybe it was Windows), or I had to support it for
that reason. Has that changed or am I imagining/misremembering it?
I also (mis)remember that this shared_and_static option doesn't work on linux
at all? Is this a mac-only feature?

The CMake equivalent would probably be a Qt5$${MODULE}_USE_STATIC_LIBS option.
I'll look into it.
