The problems came from the fact, that this (probably also others of
this lib) are not COFF object files, but aout object files. While
porting the binutils we had the also the above problems. After adding
the support for aout object files, I have tested it with this object
file and it worked (for you also, as you wrote) but I have not tested it
inside a lib.

I think the best way you would be to the check anywhere if it is
possible
to get the files in COFF format because I don't know what happened if
you
have sevaral types of object files in one library.
