$_top.GTK_LIBS will be defined when the "gtklib" target is updated.
That hasn't happened yet when foo2.aap is read.

Aap reads all the recipes before it starts updating the first target.
You would have to use:

	:child foo1.aap
	:update gtklib
	:child foo2.aap

But that still won't work when gtklib is up-to-date.
