Comment (by Steven Watanabe):

 Are these external libraries like:

 {{{
 lib a b ;
 exe test : test.cpp a b ;
 }}}

 If so, that's kind of the expected behavior.  Boost.Build just passes -la
 -lb and doesn't actually try to track down the actual location of the
 libraries.  If you give the exact location with <file>/path/to/a.a, then
 the dependency should be added.
