ranlib: out of memory

[David Brown]

Hiya.  It seems that my ranlib is broken.  I'm using a Sun 3/60 
running SunOS4.0.  I've got a directory of  .o files that I want
in an archive...so I:

	ar crv libjunk.a file1.o file2.o file3.o ... fileN.o
	a - file1.o
	a - file2.o
	a - file3.o
	...
	a - fileN.o
	ranlib libjunk.a
	ranlib: ran out of memory

All together, these files don't add up to 200K.  Is ranlib on SunOS4.0
broken?  I looked over the 'fixes' on the 4.0.1 tape, but there's nothing
on ranlib.  And yes, I've tried my WONDERFUL Sun software support ...
I've been waiting for a return call for 6 days now.

I don't have source to pick through, unfortunately.  Anyone out there in
netland know of a way around this?  Any and all help greatly appreciated!
