The order is not important on linux *only* in the case of linking to
shared libraries; when linking against static archives the order is just
as critical as on PE systems.  Or alternatively put: on PE systems,
linking to shared libraries happens with the same linker machinery as
static libraries (i.e. an import library is a static archive of function
thunks.)

Thus it is not something you can ignore or dismiss as a windows-ism
since you never know if "-lfoo" is present on the user's system as a
static or shared library, even on Linux.
