To extract all archive members from library:

ar xv libsome.a

To disassemble object file:

objdump --source file.o

If it was compiled with `-g' you will get source lines
mixed with assmebler listing.  In this case you can
strip assembler listing (less hand editing needed):

objdump --source file.o | grep -v '^[0-9]' > file.c

`ar' and `objdump' come with binutils.
