Thanks for inputs, guys. I forgot to mention that I work on original
EDK2 code, so it's not about Linaro build script, I'm just trying to
make some improvements to build system that can be upstreamed.

Have another question: I heard about weak dependency checking in UEFI
build system. Could anybody provide any details on it? I mean, how to
reproduce it, how it supposed to work etc?
