[Boost-build] dll depends on executable with several exported symbols

I have the following situation:
- executable exports several functions
- dll uses the exported functions, so the dll depens on the executable

Jamroot:
use-project /app : app ;
use-project /dll : dll ;

app/Jamfile:
project : : ;
exe app : ... ;

dll/Jamfile:
project : : ;
lib dll : /app//app ;

I use the following version of the boost build:
 >bjam --version
Boost.Build V2 (Milestone 12)
Boost.Jam 03.1.17

The problem is that the boost build does not put import library produced 
by the exe rule to the dll.dll.rsp file. As a result linking fails.

I will be appreciate for any suggestions.

Thanks in advance.
