Hi,

assuming I have to link against a library bar, which is located
in directory foo, it may well happen that the following files
exist:

            foo/libbar.so
            foo/libbar.a

If I use MakeMaker with

    LIBS="-Lfoo -lbar"

this will of course work, but use the dynamic library. However,
in some situations I want to force use of the static library.
I would like to do this with either of

    LIBS="foo/libbar.a"
    LIBS="-Lfoo -llibbar.a"

or something similar, but everything fails, because MakeMaker
refuses the respective argument with "libbar.a" and removes it
from the option list.


Any suggestions?


Regards,

Jochen
