Did this line get truncated? It might help to have the rest of it.

My bad, in fact we do.

Could you try with the attached patch? It shows the failing filename in the archive.

A 64-bit archive symbol table sets ar_name to the string “/SYM64/”,

Ok so it seems to be a 64-bit symbol table (according to https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E53394_01/html/E54772/ar-3head.html): padded with 9 blank characters to the right." We should skip it. I will make a patch. Thanks for the report! Sylvain On 11/11/2016 22:26, Ömer Sinan Ağacan wrote:
