It's not hard coded. Somewhere there is a .lrf file or something like
that. Often it gets built dynamically by the makefile.

Here's an example from one of the ddk makefiles:

$(NAME).lrf: makefile
@%write $^@ system os2 dll
@%write $^@ option quiet
@%write $^@ option verbose
@%write $^@ option caseexact
@%write $^@ option symfile=$(NAME).dbg
@%write $^@ debug codeview
@%write $^@ option cache
@%write $^@ option map=$(WMAPNAME).
@%write $^@ option description '@$#$(_VENDOR):$(_VERSION)$#@ OS/2
Audio DD Sample'
@%write $^@ name $(NAME).sys
@for %f in ($(OBJS)) do @%append $^@ file %f
@%write $^@ import DOSIODELAYCNT DOSCALLS.427
@%write $^@ library ..\..\..\..\lib\os2286.lib
@%write $^@ library ..\wpddlib2\runtime.lib
@%write $^@ library ..\..\resource\rmcalls\rmcalls.lib

See the library statement (which could be abbreviated to l or lib).

FWIW, if you read:

http://www.scoug.com/os24u/2001/scoug012.mrkia.html

you would know that you could help your self by telling me which sample
you are trying to build and showing me the input you are attempting to
use. I'm pretty good at visualization, but often not perfect.
