Gnu-ism?  What ar does OpenBSD use?

       A  number  of modifiers (mod) may immediately follow the p
       keyletter, to specify variations on an operation's  behav­
       ior:

       ...

       s   Write an object-file index into the archive, or update
           an existing one, even if no other change  is  made  to
           the  archive.   You  may use this modifier flag either
           with any operation, or alone.   Running  ar  s  on  an
           archive is equivalent to running ranlib on it.
