1. Create library project that will output a static library.
2. Create executable that uses static library.
3. Make changes to library project.
4. Try to build executable project.

Which builder are you using? Generated makefile or internal builder?

If you mean the builders in project properties -> Builders, they are Qt makefile generator, CDT makefile builder and Scanner configuration builder.

I just realized that my CDT version was 7.0.1, NOT 7.0.2. But the when I try to install 7.0.2, the installer won't do it. Maybe I should file a new bug about this.

This bug is still present in Eclipse 8.0.
