[Boost-build] implicit-dependency problem

I am trying to use <implicit-dependency> to bring in a header generated by 
the msvc mc generator.

The person who helped me figure this out told me I had to include both
<implicit-dependency>msg
<dependency>msg

This seemed a bit odd to me, but the dependant won't compile unless either 
<dependency> is given or the msg target is built first.

Does this seem right?  Is there a bug with <implicit-dependency>?

Attached is a test case (requires msvc toolkit).

Thanks,
Daniel
