Building gcc-4.2.2 on Solaris 9, ar  version 2.18 produced a segmentation fault during the make process.  I can reproduce the error at the command prompt like this:

$ ar -s ./sparc-sun-solaris2.9/sparcv9/libjava/.libs/libgcj.a
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

ar seems to work fine for other archives.  If the archive was created by the native ar, might gnu ar behave like this?

Possibly, but it certainly should not seg-fault.

Please could you open a bug report at:

  http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/

It will really help if you can include a simple test case.  eg upload a *small* 
archive which will trigger the seg fault when the ar command is run on it.

Cheers
   Nick
