Well, I was assuming that you would be able to parametrize depends lists
as well:

<target pattern="prepare-dir-(.*)">
  <somehowCleanIt path="sources/$[1]"/>
</target>
<target pattern="build-dir-(.*)-with-libs-from-(.*)"
        depends="prepare-dir-$[1]">
  <compileIt path="sources/$[1]"
             pullInJars="$[2]/*.jar"/>
</target>

Something like that. Now run targets like
"build-dir-foo/bar-with-libs-from-miscutils". If you have different
*kinds* of dependencies for the different targets, you would need one
template per kind of dependency, I guess.
