I will vague remembrance that it was possible to get the order from some 
obscure generated file but that was at least 15-20 years ago, and that 
info was hidden in the Manuals.
And as I remembered that ObjectAda from that era was using"dynamic" 
elaboration checks, meaning that the binder did not guarantee that the 
program would start so a compile bind link must be finalized with run.

The AppletMagic manual (compiler front end is the same),
when addressing
  "Implementation-Defined Characteristics"
of LRM M, states the following:

"(34) The order of elaboration of library_items. See RM-10.2(18).
  This information is printed out by the -v flag of the adajbuild
  command."

So, maybe adabuild does something similar for ObjectAda.

There is another option that may be worth mentioning, -r, to

   "Use a more “friendly” elaboration order. The default is
     to use an order that is more likely to fail but which
     can lead to more portable programs."

I vaguely remember some AWK program that analyses the .info
files generated by the tools.
