You metion in a comp.unix.wizards message that you have trouble linking
in code in an ar that clearly shows presence of the needed .o files.  Many
ld's are one pass wonders, so that order of modules may mess up linking.
A problem may also exist if the routines are cross-referential, i.e., the
second routine makes any references to the first.
