Handle *.export.libs, distinguish interface and implementation dependencies
A library dependency on another libraries is either "interface" or "implementation". If it is interface, then everyone who links to this library should also link to the interface dependency, explicitly. A good example of an interface dependency is a library API that is called in inline functions. Interface dependencies of a library should be explicitly listed in the *.export.libs (where we can also list target names). So the typical usage will be along these lines: import int_libs = libfoo%lib{foo} import int_libs += ... import imp_libs = libbar%lib{bar} import imp_libs += ... lib{baz}: ... $int_libs $imp_libs lib{baz}: cxx.export.libs = $int_libs
