Wait, what? If you mean old-style virtuals, the position has always been that it's illegal to dep upon them in any way other than a simple virtual/foo with no operators. If you mean new-style virtuals, then they should be taking care of propagating any relevant use dependencies themselves. -- Ciaran McCreesh
