Kelly, I suffer from the same problem and solved it like this:
SET(CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_CREATE "<CMAKE_AR> -X64 cr <TARGET> <LINK_FLAGS> <OBJECTS>") SET(CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_APPEND "<CMAKE_AR> -X64 r <TARGET> <LINK_FLAGS> <OBJECTS>") SET(CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_FINISH "<CMAKE_RANLIB> -X64 <TARGET>") SET(CMAKE_CXX_ARCHIVE_CREATE ${CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_CREATE}) SET(CMAKE_CXX_ARCHIVE_APPEND ${CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_APPEND}) SET(CMAKE_CXX_ARCHIVE_FINISH ${CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_FINISH}) SET(CMAKE_Fortran_ARCHIVE_CREATE ${CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_CREATE}) SET(CMAKE_Fortran_ARCHIVE_APPEND ${CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_APPEND}) SET(CMAKE_Fortran_ARCHIVE_FINISH ${CMAKE_C_ARCHIVE_FINISH}) Does that help you?
