boost.build, update or recreate libs?

Hi all,

currently the build system updates libraries with recompiled object files and leaves the other archive members alone.

This leads to a problem when a source file is deleted from the build because the old object file stays in the library and never gets deleted.

Therefore I think the whole library should be recreated from the object files if one of its members is marked for recreation.

Comments?
