"with new object files", you don't link source files :-)

Probably mylib calls symbols defined in libgcc, therefore
libgcc needs to be linked first. That said, I find it
worrying that you need to specify libgcc at all, as it
should be linked automatically at all times, so I'd advise
you start by looking into why you need that, and try to make
it go away (I'm not a specialist in elves, so I might be
wrong here though).
