Hi Dan,

thanks for your comments… I have prepared a simple module here: 
https://github.com/mman/cmod1.

``git clone`` and ``swift build`` it and you will see the problem I’m talking 
about… 

please let me know if you need any help, I’ll prepare a more complex project 
showing the problem with this module being used as a dependency of another more 
complex module soon…

thanks,
Martin
