Comment(by tibbe):

 The attached patch should fix the problem. I verified that passing `-s`
 works even if there are two `.o` files with the same name on the command
 line:

 {{{
 $ mkdir foo
 $ cd foo
 $ cat > a.c
 int foo(void) {
     return 0;
 }
 $ gcc -c a.c
 $ cd ..
 $ mkdir bar
 $ cd bar
 $ cat > a.c
 int bar(void) {
     return 1;
 }
 $ gcc -c a.c
 $ cd ..
 $ ar -r -s blah.a foo/a.o bar/a.o
 $ ar -t blah.a
 __.SYMDEF SORTED
 a.o
 a.o
 }}}
