Thanks for the feedback. Jeff, can you forward this to the admins?

I don't see why disabling visibility would have solved/avoided the library ordering issue. Any idea? Could you try to find out which libraries/objects are actually given in the wrong order? You can see the actual link command line by compiling with "make V=1". Brice
