That patch looks actually fairly safe to me; still, at least some testing on at least one relevant system would be nice. Feel free to push when you feel comfortable with it. I think a NEWS item for this might be in order; codesearch didn't reveal any packages using $old_archive_cmds in their configure scripts but I didn't bother to check more than half a dozen result pages or so, and if there are any, they might break because of not having set $tool_oldlib. Something like this maybe? Static library creation copes better with output file names that require w32 path translation; the default value for old_archive_cmds has been changed accordingly. Hmm, I realize that due to the earlier ranlib change this was true before already.
