[issue31625] stop using ranlib

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor  added the comment:

Maybe it would be possible to keep ranlib in Python 3.6, but it seems safe to 
remove it. The master doesn't use ranlib and the compilation is fine in our 
large fleet of buildbot workers.

I chose to backport the change to be able to backport the clang LTO fix.

There is a risk of regression. Does bpo-28015 fix really depend on this change?

flag", but I'm not sure if Python 3.6 is only used on "modern Unix". Some 
people use AIX and HP-UX: does ar support "s" on these OSes?

[issue31625] stop using ranlib

[Benjamin Peterson]

New submission from Benjamin Peterson :

As far as I'm aware, every modern *nix's ar supports an "s" flag that removes 
the need to run ranlib separately on a a static library. We should just do that 
and stop running ranlib. That saves us some lines in configure.ac and the 
Makefile.
