Library collision

[Jeff Safier]

I have two libraries (from an existing Windows app) that have been
converted to LINUX static libraries
It seems that each library calls a function from the other library. 
 
 I noticed that the library order in my Makefile.am needs to be
 order dependent, meaning if a library calls another libraries functions
the calling libray must be first in the list.  Is this neccesarily true,
or am I doing something wrong.
Is there a way to disable the order dependency so the above scenario
will work.
