I agree with John here -- the automatically derived dependencies are
insufficient. For example, date-time includes some serialization headers to
make date-time types serializable. However, as long as you never include the
date-time serialization headers you don't need serialization. So the
dependency is optional based on the features you use. It's not something
that's obvious from running an automated tool...
