Globbing is for shells; make doesn't do globs.
Remember that globs in the shell, like:
ar cf AFlib [A-F]*.o
are resolved _BY THE SHELL_, not by your command (ar), so this doesn't
save any space on the command line. It still expands to all the files
and so the exec will still take just as much room.

You have to split up the files inside make, _before_ you send them to
the shell. Maybe something like:
VCS_OBS := 5NrI_d.o 5NrIB_d.o lOsn_1_d.o ... \
.... \
.... \
VCS_OBS_AM := $(filter A% B% C% D% E% F% G% H% I% J% K% L% M%,$(VCS_OBS))
VCS_OBS_NZ := $(filter-out $(VCS_OBS_AM),$(VCS_OBS))
This is pretty inefficient but it should work.
Now you can create libraries for each set.
