When I remember right, the discussions were about -la -lb -la
where they satisfy each other's symbols. You didn't want to
forbid that, which is ok. But my -lb says it's completly defined,
so basicly every library libb depends on doesn't make any sense
_before_ -lb including libb itself. But libtool currently libs
without exception any library used for linking any library which
explodes the link line as soon as your link order isn't strictly
hierarchic (never spelled that word :)
For example in some usual KDE modules I have about 8 or 9 -lc
and -lX11 and 4 to 5 /home/coolo/prod..../kdecore.a
