I tried it early. It doesn't work because the order of options to gcc is incorrect. See example based on your link:
    deplibs = [.....]
    corelibs=["m"]
    env.(STATIC_LIBS=deplibs)

    env.Append(
        LINKFLAGS=[
            Split('-Wl,--start-group $STATIC_LIBS -Wl,--end-group')
        ],
    )
    return env.Program(
        join("$BUILD_DIR", "firmware"),
        [src.GlobCXXFiles(vdir) for vdir in vdirs],
        LIBS=corelibs,
        LIBPATH="$BUILD_DIR",
        PROGSUFFIX=".elf")     

Please compare:

Doesn't work:
avr-g++ -o .pioenvs/autogen_uno/firmware.elf -Os -mmcu=atmega2560 -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--start-group .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libAdafruit_LED_Backpack_ID128.a .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libAdafruit_GFX_ID13.a .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libWire.a .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libffft.a -Wl,--end-group .pioenvs/autogen_uno/src/Piccolo.o -L.pioenvs/autogen_uno .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libFrameworkArduino.a -lm

I changed command manually and this works good:
avr-g++ -o .pioenvs/autogen_uno/firmware.elf -Os -mmcu=atmega2560 -Wl,--gc-sections .pioenvs/autogen_uno/src/Piccolo.o -L.pioenvs/autogen_uno -Wl,--start-group .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libAdafruit_LED_Backpack_ID128.a .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libAdafruit_GFX_ID13.a .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libWire.a .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libffft.a -Wl,--end-group  .pioenvs/autogen_uno/libFrameworkArduino.a -lm

======

I mean, how I can put some "LIBS" which are passed to env.Program to --start-group/--end-group ?
