The library building bits need to be revisited.  I'm not sure
what problem you are having, but it may be related to flag order
problems with the linker flags.

When I wrote the backend build system I didn't pay attention
to flag ordering and it seems "ar"  needs flags in a certain
order.  This probably won't get fixed until a build engine
rewrite.
