The order of arguments matters when linking.  This is not a GCC thing,
but a linker thing.  When the linker processes libtngdt, it doesn't
know /var/tmp/ccUUQ9VP.o (the temporary object file created from
envoi_simple.c) is going to need TNGDT_Server_Connect from the
library, so it doesn't bring this symbol in.  Then, when it gets to
the object file, it won't go back.  Reorder the flags and it should
work.
