That was it! I was under the mistaken assumption (of course) that libs
referenced by other libs needed to be *after* the others on the link
line. This will be a lesson well-remembered after all this pulling
of hair and gnashing of teeth! :-)  (Although I will remain curious why
it worked in 'auction' and not in 'clerk', but it won't bother me!)

Thank you very much, Richard!
