Looking at this again and thinking about what it does, the test as is is 
flawed.
With the order being used it doesn't check to see if  the linked binary even
is linked against libatomic. Using --as-needed it drops the libatomic 
dependency
but since the link succeeds then the code as it is and based on the 
ordering, as
I commented about, says go ahead and link in libatomic. Changing the order
so it is "" "-latomic" instead of "-latomic" "" does the right thing.

libatomic is dropped by --as-needed since it is not necessary.
