I'm afraid it does: the arguments are usually C files and -l options for libraries, and the libraries are scanned in the order they appear. Put them too early, and it fails to find a symbol defined in a later file.

I've already added such a warning. _______________________________________________ Cvs-hugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-hugs
