Yes, this is possible, though not recommended. A call to any library routine simply requires that one of the linked libraries contain that call. Problems may occur if more than one linked library containing an object module of the same name is used.

This might inadvertently occur if one were to accidentally instruct 'ld' to link an old and new version of the same library, though 'cc' and/or 'gcc' and/or 'ld' should complain if the prototype declarations in the header files differ from the object modules themselves or the source code call differs from the prototype declaration.

Why is having a first and last name field in Microsoft Access better?

It is always better to have them as separate fields. It is very common to sort on last names and if there was a field which held the first name and last name in one field instead of two separate fields, it would not be possible to do that. If you take a phone book, the entries are always sorted by the last name. So in a properly designed database the first name and last name should always be separate fields.
