If you have a library

  add_library(mylib STATIC mylib.c)

and it depends on a third-party library then tell CMake so:

  target_link_libraries(mylib otherlib)

Then CMake will guarantee that an occurrence of otherlib appears on
the link line after mylib.

These generally don't hurt anything.  CMake 3.1 will de-duplicate
shared libraries that come from logical targets (created via
add_library either as a build target or as an imported library).

FYI, the ordering algorithm is documented in source comments here:
