Hm, now I read that your obj dir is on NFS, you might be hitting some
4GiB filesize limit for the final .a file.  Are you building world with
a very low optimization level, and debug information on?

I remember there being an issue with ar and/or ranlib choking when the
.a files become too big.  Ed, does that ring any bells?
