Yes, the old shared objects can be placed in the new archive, but one also needs to ensure that the archive has the correct name, e.g. libfoo.a not libfoo.so.x.y ad libfoo.so. > As far as I can see, gcc does not provide this libtool-option (environment > variable LDFLAGS=-brtl) at all for its libraries (for good reason). I do not understand what you mean by gcc does not provide this libtool option. GCC does link libstdc++ with -G option, for use with -brtl, but does not automatically link applications with -brtl.
