Yes.
In principle it is adding above line to config/gen/makefile.pl
I went the above way because parts of the Makefile already used this
style.

bcc32 uses a simple "\n\t" which works quite well for the cases were
it is still used, but i would like it more to get rid of && entirly.

They need to be between the archive and the members.
TLIB <archive> /au [members]
whereas ar needs the action flags before the archive
ar cr <archive> [member]

I already have a hacky version of the later running, I just need to
integrate them with Configure. The downside of this approach is that
we always need to link with -lclasses additionally to -lparrot.
