 # In particular, cmake 2.6.4 (when buidling with linux/makefile generators)
 # appears to sometimes de-duplicate redundantly listed dependencies improperly.
 # To work around this, higher level modules should be listed before the modules
 # that they depend upon. -brad

+# *NOTE:  On mixing system shared libraries and updated static archives.
+# We use a number of libraries that have an existence as system libraries,
+# internal-use libraries and applications libraries.  The most-referenced
+# one of these being libz where you can find four or more versions in play
+# at once.  On Linux, libz can be found at link and run time via a number
+# of paths:
+#     
+#      => -lfreetype
+#        => libz.so.1 (on install machine, not build)
+#      => -lSDL
+#        => libz.so.1 (on install machine, not build)
+#      => -lgdk-x11-2.0
+#        => libz.so.1
+#      => -lz
+#
+# We generally want the newest version of the library to provide all symbol
+# resolution.  To that end, when using static archives, the *_PRELOAD_ARCHIVES
+# variables, PNG_PRELOAD_ARCHIVES and ZLIB_PRELOAD_ARCHIVES, get the archives
+# dumped into the target binary and runtime lookup will find the most
+# modern version.
