Options to the C compiler are processed left to right. Think about
that and then carefully try to interpret what you told the compiler.
Hint: you can't ask the compiler to look for something first, then
tell the it where to find that thing.
Also, if you're using a shared library that is not in a system-defined
location, you need to tell the program where to look for the library
at run-time using the appropriate compiler flags for your system.
