Only as long as the lib does not do anything real interesting it will work that way -- but then we can also just copy the trivial files. As soon as we do something interesting here, it will just not work anymore. We will eventually get there, but then we need to find a proper solution. For now, we better keep the stuff as it is, for the mentioned reasons.
