Hi there,

So far as I can tell, the order in which archive files are supplied to ld
seems to affect whether ld finds functions within each archive. On occasion
I have to re-order the list supplied to ld, in order for ld to find some
functions.

Any way of telling ld to load in all such files *before* final linking?
Couldn't see anything appropriate in the manpage or online docs.

My ld is V2.8.1, gcc is 2.91.57.

Thanks, sTu.
