I haven't tested it, but would this work?

install dist-hpp : toto
    : <install-dependencies>on <install-type>HPP <location>include ;

install dist-cpp : toto
    : <install-dependencies>on <install-type>CPP <location>src ;

install dist : toto
    : <install-dependencies>on <install-type>LIB <location>lib ;
