My initial reply was on a patch which removed the A-to-B declaration of
dependency.

And if you think you can have the "direction of declaration of
dependencies" the way you like it, and also (1) preserve current
"select"-like behaviour, (2) introduce no build issues, and (3) get rid of
the bogus warnings, then: Patches are welcome. (No, suggestions that
don't work, or not fully applicable to the case at hand in this thread will
NOT do).
