binutils 2.11 and 2.13 are not compatible

I noticed that if I generate an archive with an object name 13 alphabets long
say ABCDEFGHIJKLM.o using 2.13 ar (2.13.90.0.2 precisely)

ar rucv libXYZ.a ABCDEFGHIJKLM.o
ar t libXYZ.a  shows
ABCDEFGHIJKLM.o (if ar used is 2.13) (which is correct)
but
ar t libXYZ.a (using 2.11 ar, 2.11.90.0.8) yields
ABCDEFGHIJKLM.

So the ".o" is missing from the object name(if object name length is 13), if I display contents of an archive (created using 2.13) using 2.11 ar.
