[Boost-build] rebuild of lib target for each build invocation

Hello,

i build a windows message dll with:

lib messagedll : messages.mc : <linkflags>"/NOENTRY" ;

This works ok. But the resulting dll doesn't export any functions 
therefore the microsoft linker doesn't create a lib file for the dll.
Because of this boost build always tries to build the dll for each build 
invocation.
Is there a workaround to fix this? Any hints what needs to be extended 
to specify that the lib target only creates a dll without a lib file?

best regards,

bernhard
