Comment:

 This error, and its "fix", are bogus.

 EXTRA_LIBS should only include the libraries which are used directly by
 the library or module being built. Indirect dependencies should be handled
 by the *LIB variables in Grass.make.

 I intend to revert r35550, but first I'll attempt to determine what the
 problem actually is and whether some other fix is necessary.

 More generally, it would have been preferable for the reporter to have
 attached the error messages (or at least a representative sample of them),
 rather than attaching a patch and expecting it to be applied without any
 understanding of the problem (the fact that it actually happened here
 indicates a defect in the development process).
