Hi Michael,

That works.   But if you specify the options in the
reverse order, it fails.

I'll post a patch which moves processing user-specified
linker scripts to the same place as default linker scripts.

I am sorry, but I do not think that this will be accepted. The linker documentation explicitly states that options such as -T are processed when they are encountered on the command line. Changing this behavior may break linker command lines that are being used in other projects.

Cheers
  Nick
