...except for STATIC libraries on VS <= 7.1 due to the VS limitation
documented in CMake source code comments here:

 http://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=blob;f=Source/cmGlobalVisualStudioGenerator.cxx;hb=v2.8.10.2#l394

We need explicit add_dependencies() to convince CMake to use its
workaround for the VS limitation in this case.  I'll propose a
change soon.
