As far as I'm aware, standard POSIX ar has no facility for managing
different types of objects (such as 32 vs. 64 bit) in an archive.  If
this is supported in AIX then it must be a special capability for that
platform.

If someone who has such a platform wants to figure out how this works
and provide a patch for it, I'd be interested.  Otherwise I don't see
how we can support it.

Alternatively, you'd need to create two different archives, one 32bit
and one 64bit, and link the proper one for your needs.
