When building libbackends.a in servers/slapd, Digital UNIX 4.0D gives
the error:

-rw-rw-r--   1 china    src      2453018 May 18 21:27 libbackends.a

The following code snippet from servers/slapd/Makefile builds
libbackends.a:
libbackends.a: .backend
        @$(RM) -r tmp
        @$(MKDIR) tmp
        @-for i in back-*/*.a; do \
                ( \
                  cd tmp; \
                  $(AR) x ../$$i; \
                  pre=`echo $$i | sed -e 's/\/.*$$//' -e 's/back-//'`; \
                  for j in *.o; do \
                        mv $$j $${pre}$$j; \
                  done; \
                  $(AR) ruv libbackends.a *.o 2>&1 | grep -v truncated; \
                  $(RM) *.o __.SYMDEF; \
                  echo "added backend library $$i"; \
                ); \
        done
        @mv -f tmp/libbackends.a ./libbackends.a
        @$(RM) -r tmp
        @if [ ! -z "$(RANLIB)" ]; then \
                $(RANLIB) libbackends.a; \
        fi
        @ls -l libbackends.a

The contents of one of the back-*/*.a files (say
back-passwd/libback-passwd.a) is:
  % ar t back-passwd/libback-passwd.a
  ________64ELEL_
  search.o
  config.o
  version.o
When extracting the files in this archive (as is done in the code
snippet above), "________64ELEL_" is created with permission 000. So,
there is no error when the first back-*/*.a file is extracted. When
the second is extracted, it tries to overwrite tmp/________64ELEL_
which is not allowed, hence the "ar: Error: ________64ELEL_ cannot
create" error in the error above. The patch attached fixes the
problem.
