The archive reader cannot understand long filenames as they are encoded in the archive format as used on Mac OS X; it only understands the SysV format. Worse yet, members with long filenames probably appear corrupt to the bytecode reader. See ar(5) on a Mac OS X machine for details.
This patch adds support for 4.4BSD/Mac OS X ar(5) format long filenames: http://mail.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20031208/010075.html Share and Enjoy, -Brian
