It is certainly worth a try. Change it in your local copy and see if libtool
fails any additional tests. Provided the archive_cmds setting is confined to
a $host switch, it won't break any other supported architectures.

Thanks for the comments. I'm happy to change SCO archive_cmds if you find
that it works correctly. I am worried that you might trigger some of the
problems that instigated the multi-language-branch, if you find that changing
to $CC explicitly is a problem for you, then you could try an mlb snapshot,
and we'll aim to fix SCO for libtool-1.5?
Cheers,
Gary.
