Comment:

 The above is now fixed in 6.12 and HEAD:
 {{{

   * Tweak the Makefile code for making .a libs; fixes trac #3642
   The main change is that, rather than using "xargs ar" we now put
   all the filenames into a file, and do "ar @file". This means that
   ar adds all the files at once, which works around a problem where
   files with the same basename in a later invocation were overwriting
   the existing file in the .a archive.

   * Fix the build for non-GNU-ar

 Wed Mar 24 09:20:43 PDT 2010  Ian Lynagh <[email protected]>
   * Quote the ar path in configure

   * Strip out ^M characters to stop gcc getting confused
