Comment(by doughera):

 I'm not sure what to make of this report since the failure mode in the
 attachment [https://trac.parrot.org/parrot/attachment/ticket/814/parrot-
 debug.make] is very different from the failure mode in the original
 report.

 Assuming the failure mode in the attachment is the result of a fresh
 download and build, then the resulting error message is one I haven't seen
 before.  (You should check your local man pages to make sure that error
 message isn't mentioned there.)

 > ranlib: can't write to output file (Result too large)

 Unfortunately, I don't think this is something easily debugged remotely.
 You'll have to do some local detective work.  I can think of several
 possibilities.  Is there disk space to write the output?  Is there disk
 space in your /tmp directory (or wherever ar stores its temporary files,
 perhaps affected by a TMPDIR environment variable)?

 What happens if you try to execute the offending ar command by hand?  What
 if you just try to run it on a small subset of the parrot object files?
 Perhaps with these clues in hand, you might be able to figure out what's
 gone wrong.
