Understood.

Would it be possible to compute myprog_DEPENDENCIES at make's
runtime instead? At that time the real set of library names is
known, even for 'make MYLIB=liba.a'. Maybe something like

myprog_DEPENDENCIES = $(patsubst -%,,$(myprog_LDADD))

Probably this is too much gmake, but surely you get the meaning.
