Do not use 'u' flag for ar
Richard, this trivial patch is candidate for 2.2.2-staging (or another
one if someone thinks it deserves it).

The Reproducible Builds effort (https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds)
in Debian (at least) means that 'ar' is built in deterministic mode as default:
all timestamps are set to 0.
This is not compatible with the use of the 'u' flag, and therefore ARFLAGS
has to be changed from 'cru' to 'cr'.
This gets rid of the harmless but annoying warning
ar: `u' modifier ignored since `D' is the default (see `U')
