The order does always matter. From 'info gcc':
It makes a difference where in the command you write this option;
the linker searches and processes libraries and object files in
the order they are specified. Thus, `foo.o -lz bar.o' searches
library `z' after file `foo.o' but before `bar.o'. If `bar.o'
refers to functions in `z', those functions may not be loaded.
So in your first case, run with -v to see the linker options:
