Actually doing something wrong with cc. Correct answer is that the -l (and -L)
options for cc are position sensitive, and belong after your source files or
object files. Libraries are not rescanned to deal with forward references.

Odd. I swear I've been putting the libraries in with the compiler options for
years. Some other systems must either rescan libraries, or scan all libraries
last. But that's a discussion for someone else's list.

And everybody that will send me mail before this hits the list.
