The problem is that those two static libraries contain similar symbols

How can I remove this "-Wl,--whole-archive" which is put around the static
libraries ?
What do you expect the result of this change to be? Will you be happy
if it works for you, but not for many other people?
Note that even if the libraries are shared libraries, my experience is
that the level of success is similar to betting at the horse races, or
a visit to Las Vegas blackjack tables. Depending on the operating
systems involved, and order of execution, the similarly named symbol
may be pulled from one library or the other at run time since DLL
symbols are resolved upon first use.
