        separately. C is a very-common base library, and X contains less-common functionality; X
        depends on C, such that applications seeking to import library X must also import library
        C. The target describing X would set C's target in <code>avoid_deps</code>. In this way,
        X can depend on C without also containing C. Without this <code>avoid_deps</code> usage,
        an application importing both X and C would have duplicate symbols for C.</p>
