[Boost-build] Cannot add dependencies to alias

Hello,

I am trying to add a dependency to an alias from within a scanner's process rule but it is not doing anything.  I tried the following simple example to verify the ability to add a dependency to a alias after it is declared but can't even get it to work:

lib test : test.c ;
alias t ;
DEPENDS t : test ;

>bjam.exe t
...found 1 target...

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Chris
