Like any other inclusion, it needs to be copied to the standalone when 
it is built. If the standalone opens other mainstacks, those don't need 
inclusions, only the app stack needs them. You only have to do this once 
and standalone settings will remember.

If you build a standalone from an entirely different stack, then you'd 
need to copy the external to that one too as part of the normal 
standalone settings setup.
