Oh well it was worth a try

Hmm....  I just noticed this in the ld docs

`-Ur'
     For anything other than C++ programs, this option is equivalent to
     `-r': it generates relocatable output--i.e., an output file that
     can in turn serve as input to `ld'.  When linking C++ programs,
     `-Ur' _does_ resolve references to constructors, unlike `-r'.  It
     does not work to use `-Ur' on files that were themselves linked
     with `-Ur'; once the constructor table has been built, it cannot
     be added to.  Use `-Ur' only for the last partial link, and `-r'
     for the others.

so maybe

ld -Ur -o ogr.o ogrcurve.o ogrlinestring.o

If that doesn't work maybe a question to gcc-help at gcc.gnu.org
is in order
