c++/7987: Linker command has wrong directory order

[Smith, Jonathan C5]

I did set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.  The existence of the 2.96 libraries in a
system location caused them to be linked against, not the proper ones for
GCC 3.0.4.  

I had a similar problem under SGI in another version where code would not
link.  A run-time configuration file for GCC was directing the linker (via
-L arguments) to check system locations prior to the location of that
version of GCC.  Appropriately named libraries were found, but the symbols
were not correct.  I had to correct that config file to make it properly
work.  Again, this was with a properly set LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

State-Changed-Why:
    You have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include the path to which
    gcc installs its libraries. The path to these libraries is
    not hard-wired into the executables.
