ranlib is basically never required on a modern system. It is really
only needed if the archive is built with the S option to ar.
So I think the best way to address this is to not run ranlib.
If you consider Darwin "modern", then that statement is not correct
as moving/copying an archive on darwin, requires ranlib to be run.
