Neither could be used generate such dependencies because such deps cannot be calculated until after the code is linked (i.e., all external symbols have been resolved). Any change of the client code could change which libs it needs. We cannot know which external symbols it needs until it is compiled, and do not know where they come from until it is linked. Chicken vs. egg.
