Comment:

 I confirmed that my cross-compilation uses `/usr/bin/ar` at this point, so
 I was unable to reproduce the problem.

 What does your bootstrap compiler output for `ghc --info` under `("ar
 command",___)`? That command should end up as the value of `AR_STAGE0` in
 `mk/config.mk`, and then get run for `ar` here since `bin-package-db` is a
 stage 0 package.
