I have compiled several modules in c++ and assembled them in a library
using 
ar rcv libmy.a a1.o a2.o ...
The ar program executes ok and the list of its contents shows all members.
However, use of this library like:
gcc -o m.exe m.cc -lgpp -lmy
or 
gcc -o m.exe m.cc libmy.a -lgpp 
results in a message about missing functions. The program compiles fine
when all object files are given explicitely:
gcc -o m.exe m.cc a1.o a2.o .... -lgpp 
Am I missing something, or is it a bug in 0.8d? Does the same problem exists
in 0.8e?

On a related question, GNU make does not recognize the following line
from SUN make:
OBJECTS = $(SOURCES:.cc=.o)
Is this a standard make statement?
