The 'info gcc' says for __attribute__((constructor)):
`constructor'
The `constructor' attribute causes the function to be called
automatically before execution enters `main ()'.
That's *all* gcc promises. No guarantees of exactly when they are
called, nor in which order.
Reading gcc source would let you know what a particular version of
gcc does, but not what guarantees there are. If it's not in the
manual, assume it's not specified.
