--as-needed will let the linker throw away all symbols that aren't used.
It always does this when linking static libraries. That's why with
those, it's important that they're in the right order. The same is true
when using --as-needed. The order should be such, that all used symbols
from a library must be used by files which are mentioned before (so they
are undefined references when the library gets linked). This means your
source file must be before all libraries (not after them, as it is now),
and libararies which depend on each other must be in the correct order
as well[1].
Hope this helps,

[1] Not sure about that, perhaps that's sorted out when they were
compiled. Anyway, it doesn't hurt to do it.
