When you run the configure option.

It's part of the overall system that lets you move the install tree as a
whole and have everything continue to work.

Don't worry, gcc will do it for you.
> 4) Is it harmful to reorder the lists?
It can be, yes. It sort of depends on exactly what you do. In some
cases there are multiple files with the same name, and it's important
that gcc find them in the order.
> 5) As I'm not familiar with Linking/Headers/dynamic & static libraries - Is there a good help which gives overview?
That's quite general and I'm not sure what you are asking. Linking and
Headers mean very different things to me.

No, but don't worry about it.
