Currently, at least on Mac OS X 10.11.4 (El Capitan), Qemu fails to build for a

One of those reasons is that Apple's ld (at least ld64) does not properly
process archive files created with ar (even Apple's ar).
After some RTFM'ing, I came upon this tidbit, which is unfortunate. Luckily,
autotools packages are not broken.
"Libtool with -static is intended to replace ar(5) and ranlib."

In any case, this change takes Apple's recommendations into account and allows
Qemu to build on Mac OS X El Capitan.

Hmm. Is this patch still relevant? Apparently I missed it back then.
Thanks,
