OK, I updated the patches a bit more and now just holding them in praiskup-ARFLAGS branch for a while. I noticed that at this moment 'gnulib' decides what will be the default ARFLAGS, not libtool (since the time libtool started to be dependant on gnulib -- and thus calls automatically GL_EARLY). To gnulib guys: I haven't done proper analysis yet. Is the gl_PROG_AR_RANLIB really expected to be called for *each* 'gnulib' dependant project? If yes, could we possibly at least set the ARFLAGS default value to 'cr' instead of 'cru'? See [1,2] for context. >From libtool POV I'm not sure what is correct approach, should we let gnulib do the decission about ARFLAGS, or should I rather somehow by-pass the gl_PROG_AR_RANLIB. Similarly automake (theoretically, AFAIK it does not depend on gnulib yet), there is also some logic regarding ARFLAGS variable..
