Hello, and sorry for the delay,

Automake outputs 'AR = ar' in Makefile.in for rules creating old
libraries iff neither AC_PROG_LIBTOOL nor another method to define
AR correctly is used in configure.ac.

So this issue concerns packages using Automake but not using Libtool.

I figured with AM_PROG_AR eventually being needed anyway that would fix
this in one go ...

A good workaround, as already mentioned, is to use this in configure.ac:
  AC_CHECK_TOOL([AR], [ar], [false])

Cheers,
Ralf
