That is simply the way that the linker works.  It is documented
in the ld manual:

`-lNAMESPEC'
`--library=NAMESPEC'
     Add the archive or object file specified by NAMESPEC to the list
     of files to link.  This option may be used any number of times.
     If NAMESPEC is of the form `:FILENAME', `ld' will search the
     library path for a file called FILENAME, otherise it will search
     the library path for a file called `libNAMESPEC.a'.
