Can you characterize the problem in more detail for me? That is,
exactly what link order constraints you are trying to obey.

I am thinking about this:

    # Makefile
    link-first := drivers/scsi/foo.o drivers/i2o/%o drivers/scsi/bar.o
    link-last :=

    DRIVERS := \
        $(filter $(link-first), $(DRIVERS)) \
        $(filter-out $(link-first) $(link-last), $(DRIVERS)) \
        $(filter $(link-last), $(DRIVERS))

This is just a preliminary thought. I'd like to know more about the
problem.
