Put bcd.h in the same directory where you compile your source, and add 
-I. switch to the compilation command line.  This should solve the 
problem.

If bcd.o is inside libbcd.a, then you don't need bcd.o anywhere.

If the sources of the application code include a header, GCC must be able 
to find that header.  The header is not in the library, it must be 
accessible as a file at compile time.
