It seems to me that -current libtool has lost the ability to run
ranlib when creating static libraries. I added back the lines from a
previous versions, see patch at end. Is there any reason for not
calling ranlib? Not using ranlib does make static libraries not work
on some platforms, for example OpenBSD/i386. Any comments?
