If nobody links with them directly (for example if those are plugins  
which are loaded at runtime only when they are needed), you can use  
OLD_FILES for them instead of OLD_LIBS.

The goal of OLD_LIBS is to not remove libs which may break  
applications when they are not available. For this reason symlinks to  
libs and static libs (libXXX.a) are removed with OLD_FILES, it doesn't  
hurt at program startup time if those are not available.

Bye,
Alexander.
