While I understand the desire just to fix things, I think it is
dangerous to introduce such smartness in the wrapper when a typical
compiler lacks it. The caller should provide the arguments in the
correct order. If it's only about un-breaking things that the wrapper
itself would break, sure, it should handle that. But here … could wine
be fixed to call it correctly instead?

Also, does this touch on any -L arguments, too? The odering of -Lfoo
-lbar -Lbaz -loo is sensitive to actual semantic change when the -L are
taken in front.


Alrighty then,

Thomas
