What would be 'unusual or incorrect' in

$ cat hello.F
      program hello
      implicit none
      write(*,*) 'Hello!'
      end

(1)
$ g77 hello.F -o hello -L/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4 -lg2c
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../libcygwin.a(libcmain.o):(.text+0xab):
 undefined reference to [EMAIL PROTECTED]'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


(2)
$ g77 hello.F -L/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4 -lg2c -o hello

$ ./hello
 Hello!

?


It should all become clear in terms of the linker's requirement that
undefined references must always come in objects earlier than the
symbols that satisfy those references

I know this...but then '-o hello' contains symbols that satisfy previous
references ? (compare (1) with (2))


I think you're speculating too much.  What does it do without adding the
library and path in the first case?  I'm not at a Windows box right now
but I get a similar link error from Linux in the first case.  You'll
either see the same thing I do without the library (everything's fine)
or you'll see a different problem.  If it's the former, your problem
is that you added the unneeded library.  If it's the latter, it's an
ordering problem as Dave mentioned.
