Objects that depend on other objects must precede the other objects in 
the line order.  If I have object foo that has dependency to libbar.a 
then I must have object foo before -lbar.  The same is true for library 
libfoo.a that is dependent on libbar.a, -lfoo -lbar must be the order. 
If foo is dependent on bar and bar is dependent on foo then I must -lfoo 
-lbar -lfoo in order for resolution to happen correctly.
