New description:

 {{{
 It appears, we need both of them. For example. Boost.Graph build
 requires that one main target use header generated by another.
 PCH support is also better implemented via dependency properties

     exe a : a.cpp : <pch>my_pch ;

 Exported properties are needed by Boost right now: date_time
 requires certain defines to be set by modules *using* them.
