Not sure exactly what you're looking for here - but I think you're 
wanting to know
about the way it resolves symbols.
Basically symbol lookups are only done in libraries that appear later on 
the command line than
the one needing the symbol. So if libb.a depends on liba.a, then
gcc bladibla -lb -la
will work while
gcc bladibla -la -lb
will fail.

Hope that's relevant
