instead of putting ??ver.o in the library, explicitly link it on the
command line. if it is in the .a library file, it is never linked
unless there is an external reference to something in it. if a .o is
specified at the command line, it will be forced to be linked in.
i.e., use "gcc -o foo ver.o main.o libfoo.a" instead of something
like "gcc -o foo main.o libfoo.a" where ver.o is in libfoo.a
