If I'm building an executable that uses lib b, and lib b depends on
lib a, must I list both lib a and lib b as sources for the exe? The
sample in the docs seems to indicate "yes":
<http://www.boost.org/doc/tools/build/doc/html/bbv2/faq/s05.html>

I would prefer not to, but I suspect it is this way for a reason.

Thanks,
