$cons{LIBS} and dependencies

[Doug Alcorn]

I'm building a number of .a libraries in my project and then linking
them in a the final link command.  I've added a list of all the
'-lfoo -lbar -lbaz' to the LIBS of the cons environment.  I thought
the documentation said that the library would be added to the
dependencies.  However, I have to have a line like this:

Depends $CONS "$TARGET", ( "$EXPORT/lib/libfoo.a",
"$EXPORT/lib/libbar.a","$EXPORT/lib/libbaz.a");

In order to get the libraries built.  Is this normal?  Note that I do
have Library commands in my Conscripts to build libfoo.a libbar.a and
libbaz.a.
