    lorder: add note that it is no longer required
    
    Use of lorder(1) is not required by contemporary linkers.
    
    The GNU coreutils manual[1] has a good description of the use of lorder
    and tsort:
    
        This whole procedure has been obsolete since about 1980, because
        Unix archives now contain a symbol table (traditionally built by
        ranlib, now generally built by ar itself), and the Unix linker uses
        the symbol table to effectively make multiple passes over an archive
        file.
    
    See 0e1e341b486c for some more details.
