You can solve this with
--whole-archive
 For each archive mentioned on the command line after the 
--whole-archive option, include every
 object file in the archive in the link, rather than searching 
the archive for the required
 object files. This is normally used to turn an archive 
file into a shared library, forcing
 every object to be included in the resulting shared library. 
This option may be used more
 than once.
 Two notes when using this option from gcc: First, gcc 
doesn't know about this option, so you
 have to use -Wl,-whole-archive. Second, don't forget to use 
-Wl,-no-whole-archive after your
 list of archives, because gcc will add its own list of 
archives to your link and you may not
 want this flag to affect those as well.
