I think that depedencies to binaries, like cpphs, should be treated
differently than depedencies to libraries, because using a (L)GPL-ed
binary mostly hasn't any implications for a "commercial" user and
also for the output of a (L)GPL-ed binary usually the (L)GPL doesn't apply.

In the case of cpphs, there's no way to determine that we're using it as a library or an executable, since it's just listed in the build-depends.
