commit 05e160e36527f6f36f997d7aa56f0cbe4cbb50a3
Author: Karel Gardas <karel.gardas at centrum.cz>
Date:   Sun Feb 9 21:58:05 2014 +0100

    add --with-ar and --with-ranlib configure parameters
    
    Both --with-ar and --with-ranlib are usable on non-GNU/Linux systems
    where GNU tools are usually installed (or possible to install), but
    not into standard location nor with standard name. Tested on Solaris 10.
