Thank you for the explanation. Then maybe we should deprecate pragma(lib).
If it doesn't work, there's no difference between having it and not - you have to do it yourself anyway. So deprecation accomplishes nothing except breaking it for the people who *do* use it.
At least the pragma could be printed out to the user (treat it like pragma(msg) where lib isn't supported?) or read by some other tool even if the compiler doesn't use it.
