libpthread_nonshared.a link order

Would there be any harm in swapping the link order from
	 libpthread.so libpthread_nonshared.a
to
	 libpthread_nonshared.a libpthread.so 
?

That works around an ld bug on ppc that makes glibc not build right now.
The ld bug will get fixed.  But if there is no harm to changing the link
order, I will do that now so that ppc is not held up waiting for the ld fix.

I think the details here are all the same for NPTL and LinuxThreads,
though I have only tried the LT build on ppc lately.


Thanks,
Roland
