I suppose the arch problem occurred because Qt was built in 64bit mode, and that has nothing to do with devenv. I can put a variable in the Qt5Core config file containing the arch. Better yet, I can put it in a INTERFACE_TARGET_ARCH target property and have cmake ensure that all targets are compatible. Such a TARGET_ARCH should be a built-in property in CMake, and CMake should also check it for each target against the generator. That would at least give a sensible error message about what the problem is at cmake-time. This might also be generally useful for storing an arch triple on linux systems? Can 32 and 64 bit libs be mixed there? This isn't for 2.8.11 obviously.
