Bug ID: 1226251
           Summary: RFE: xmvn-subst does not support symlinking the
                    current reactor artifacts
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
         Component: xmvn

Description of problem:
The thermostat package needs to symlink some of its own artifacts
(com.redhat.thermostat:*) during a build. However, xmvn-subst only works if
artifacts are actually installed. It would be ideal if xmvn-subst could be used
for symlinking external deps as well as reactor artifacts.
We currently work around this problem by adding a self-BR. However this is
cumbersome for version upgrades since we need to:
- remove the self BR (or disable it via some global spec variable)
- build
- re-add self BR
- rebuild
It's especially a problem for building RPMs via CI.
