Except Tru64 UNIX, though there you can turn the default behavior off.

This is the same behavior as the linker on Tru64 UNIX version 4.x and
5.x, and trips up a lot of people.  You can get the older, more common
behavior by making sure that

	-oldstyle_liblookups

is passed to the linker at link time.
