Stricter linker semantics, already known. (See also #11674, where
someone else tried the same.)

For symmetrica, '-lm' has to be moved, but there's actually already a
new spkg which removes the test executable completely, and thereby
also the (need for the) '-lm'; see .

The problem with Singular is the order of '-ldl' and '-lkernel'; the
latter uses the former, so the order has to be flipped. Haven't yet
checked whether this is already fixed in a *current* upstream release
(we're still at 3-1-1-4, upstream is 3-1-3 IIRC). Hopefully Sage's
version will be upgraded during Sage/Singular Days (SD34) at the end
of this month.

An ugly work-around is to set LDFLAGS
