[sr #110475] ranlib: plugin needed to handle lto object

Follow-up Comment #2, sr #110475 (project autoconf):

I am sorry I reported this issue against Autoconf then. I am no expert in
Autoconf/Automake, and I often find it difficult to pin-point where such
problems are coming from.

I found the following development site for Automake:

https://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=automake

But there is no "Support" link to report bugs, like in this project. I haven't
really have the time now to deal with project bureaucracy.

About attaching an example, I'm afraid I haven't got a small, easy example to
attach. My project has moved to this location:

https://github.com/rdiez/DebugDue/

This is where I had to add the workaround:

https://github.com/rdiez/DebugDue/blob/f61f3c4491efee5d01f692a2d50c2cc1bf43c9f1/DebugDueBuilder.sh#L502

If the link does not work, search for "AR=" in the project's shell scripts.

In order to test it, you would have to build a cross-compilation toolchain
first, so it is not really suitable as an easy example.

Anyway, the problem this bug report is about is rather popular and obvious,
and I did include links from other such reports on the Internet. I am
surprised that you haven't got tons of duplicate bug reports about this.

I cannot find a way to change the status of this bug report, or close it. I do
not know why either. This Savannah system is not really helpful in this
respect.
