BUG: platform-specific dependency ignored in dependency chain

[yves@…]

gnustep-make has this following darwin platform variant

platform puredarwin {
        depends_lib     port:gcc40
        configure.args-append  --with-library-combo=gnu-gnu-gnu \
                               CC=gcc-dp-4.0
}

if I do "port install gnustep-make", gcc40 dependency is built

However, if I do "port install gnustep-base" then gnustep-make is built (since gnustep-base depends on it) with the right configure arguments but gcc40 dependency is not taken into account (so the build fails)
