I'd like to avoid that if possible, in order to keep cpplib
standalone.

Hmm.  I don't really fancy breaking up our target struct either if we
can avoid it.  I don't fancy working on this, it's a lot of work and
I've got my head wrapped around other things at the moment (and it's
not my bug... :-P).  I thought it would be a quick fix, but sadly not.
A good solution probably needs quite some thought.
