I'm quite sure that the top scope is available everywhere.  Perhaps the
problem is that you use $_top.GTK_LIBS in a dependency, and it's only
set when executing dependencies?  Remember that Aap expands variables
when they are set, unlike "make".

Perhaps you can give a complete example of the problem.
