Trouble with TeX3.0 and ranlib.

I have been trying to install TeX3.0 into Xenix '386 2.3.2. Finally,
I got a good compile through and through (gcc) with the exception of
the mf subdirectory (MetaFont). Finally, I resolved my problem by
removing mf from alldirs, causing its generation to be ignored.

The problem was with TeX3.0/mf/MFwindows/windows.a (if memory serves me
correctly). Using the xenix ranlib, ld claims this isn't a valid archive.
Using the ranlib distributed by Steve and Ron at RoboBar, the ranlib dumps
core.

Any suggestions, anyone?
BTW, I don't really need MetaFont because we can download all the fonts we
desire from a big bertha. It would be nice to be self-sufficient, though.
Ron.
