i have traced this down to a change by isotnikov-guest (cc'd) on jun
12 to use libtool instead of ar and ranlib in lib/ and sanei/. it
seems that our included version of libtool does not work properly in
link mode, and fails to pass the object names to ar. this wont bite
you if you are working in an old checkout, but after a make clean, or
with a new checkout, you'll have problems.

i am not a libtool expert, but i did try using my system copy (1.5.16)
and it worked fine with the same command line.

ideas?
