Libtool parameterizes the ar(1) invocation to create a new library, in the AR and AR_FLAGS variables. On 64-bit AIX, AR_FLAGS has to be set to "-X64 cru", as ar(1) only accepts 32-bit objects by default. This much works fine.Without having tested: I assume you have manually set AR_FLAGS=-X64, is that true? Can you try this configure AR="ar -X64" it should serve as a workaround until the bug is fixed.
Ralf, remember that this exact same problem was discussed amongst ourselves off-list after I encountered the same issue. At that time, it was determined that AIX ar did respect the environment variable OBJECT_MODE=64 (apparently the easiest way to trigger a 64-bit build under AIX), but perhaps a different option should be supplied to ar by libtool.
