I couldn't have said it any better. Thank you Eric.

And thanks to everyone that suggested solutions. The most promising one seems 
to be that of generating a linker script that specifies the input files, but I 
haven't gotten around to trying it out.

In the meantime, I share Eric's belief that this would be a very desirable 
feature for the GNU linker.
