Then in the proposed scheme you'd have to list them twice.  Once with
just a filename to pass to the linker, and once with an entire pathname
for the dependencies.

Maybe this isn't the best idea in the world, it's just a strawman.  But
trying to implement the same search algorithm as the linker seems
problematic.  Do they search in the LIB environment variable first, or
after what you specify on the command line?  Do they include the current
directory?  Etc, etc.

I can go either way (especially if you're volunteering to implement the
harder solution!).

Eric.
