It is better to pass all libraries to ld(1) even though a .so may have unresolved references: the NEEDED entry serves as an additional protection against version mismatches and symbol versioning (if you ever add it) requires ld(1) to have access to the .so containing the definition so it knows the version name to store in the output file. -- Jilles Tjoelker
