update to the last comment: the ld.gold linker does the link, but the output 
misses the dependency on libm and therefore cannot be executed.  What a mess! 
(The ld.gold even fails for the -lbar -lm (no -lfoo) case with this, while the 
standard ld at least then produces correct output.
My conclusion: the current behavior of ld for --as-needed is at least not very 
consistent (why should -lbar -lm work, when -lfoo -lbar -lm should not?! 
Shouldn't be the key idea of --as-needed to remove the dependency on -lfoo, and 
of -lfoo only?)
