 # `build.mcpp` consults the toolchain payload first and reaches this package

+# ⚠️ BOTH SPELLINGS, AND THE PAIR IS THE MIGRATION.
+#
+# `[xlings.workspace]` is the one table since mcpp 2026.9.3.1; `deps` is the
+# older spelling of the same statement. An engine that knows the table
+# collapses the two, because they agree; one that predates it reads `deps` and
+# behaves as today. Dropping the older line now would be a silent regression
+# there — such an engine parses the table and provisions nothing from it, so
+# `build.mcpp` would find no headers through `mcpp::xpkg_dir` on the one
+# platform that needs the fallback. The line goes once no supported engine
+# needs it.
+#
+# The version is unconstrained on both sides: this package needs the headers to
+# exist and has nothing to say about which release of them.
+#
+# The name stays bare. A namespaced package is written
+# `"<namespace>:<name>" = "<version>"` since mcpp 2026.9.3.2, and this entry has
+# no namespace to write: the `deps` line it mirrors names `libcxx-headers`
+# unqualified, and qualifying it here would change which index the name
+# resolves through.
