Comment (by guest):

 Oh and this only happens if the duplicate file name is spread over several
 invocations. If we do this:
 {{{
 AR="/usr/bin/ar -q -s -c"
 echo 'void f() { }' > a.c
 gcc -c a.c
 cp a.o b.o
 rm a.a
 $AR a.a a.o b.o b.o
 $AR a.a a.o
 ar -s a.a
 ar -t a.a
 }}}
 then we'll end up with a.a containing one copy of {{{a.o}}} and two copies
 of {{{b.o}}}
