Right now I don't think you can.  What does this flag do?  The help is 
somewhat terse in devenv...   It says "specifies whether or not library 
outputs from project dependencies are automatically linked in."  What 
exactly does this do for you?  There maybe a more portable "CMake" way 
to do the same thing.   Exactly what is your use case?  Can you describe 
a very simple project and how it uses this flag?
