jam - exe rule

I'm trying to reuse the boost build system for my own project.
I've managed to get some libraries built and am linking them
into an exe... but I have a .lib not built by my system that I
also want to link in. How do I do this? 

I tried this, where xxx.lib is the library I want to link in...

exe foo : foo.cpp <lib>../baz xxx.lib

And, I tried various combinations of LinkLibraries, NEEDLIBS,
and LINKSLIBS... and i'm just flailing about. Is this just not
supported, or am I just being dumb?
