New description:

 {{{
 At the moment the notion of link (in)compatibility is supported
 only by 'link-incompatible' features. A main target cannot use
 targets with different value of 'link-incompatible' feature.

 This is not sufficient: single-threaded binaries may use
 multi-threaded objects. Therefore, additional mechanism
 should be developed and implemented.

 Tentatively scheduled for Milestone 3.
