Don't know.  A google search for:

  ar "File Truncated" tru64

shows a few others with the same issue.

I would try and run those commands directly and see if you can reproduce
the problem outside of make.  Try various combinations of .o files --
you might be able to find out what's causing your "ar" program to fail.

Sorry for the trouble.
