We do not currently make use QMAKE_TARGET_COPYRIGHT the Qt documentation says:

Windows only. Specifies the copyright information for the project target; this is used where applicable for putting the copyright information in the application's properties. This is only utilized if the VERSION or RC_ICONS variable is set and the RC_FILE and RES_FILE variables are not set.
Given that we DO set VERSION and RC_ICON this might be relevant, OTOH although we do not explicitly set the RC_FILE and RES_FILE they may be generated for us - but that might be significant!
