antioxidant-build-system (*) automatically ignores all dependencies it 
can't find (including Windows dependencies), and as such solves this.

(*) close to 100%, the main remaining problem is lack of support for 
workspaces; I'm currently looking for packaging a topological sorting 
algorithm but it depends on other unpackaged things etc.  Other problems 
should be rather minor.
