...and what I was trying to say here is that it's equally possible that
the link command that created app listed them in the opposite order, so
that cygcheck vists the app -> libb import first and the app -> liba
import second, resulting in:

app
  libb
  liba

I mention this because it demonstrates that this is not a reliable
behavior, it depends on the particular ordering of the import data
section, which makes it particularly bad to say things like "always look
at the first level dependencies".
