Description Petr Machata 2012-10-11 10:21:32 UTC 
Description of problem:
brp-strip-static-archives strips static archives.  The solution is to rename them so that this rpmbuild script doesn't find them.  Linker scripts need to be updated accordingly.  I verified that when named .ar instead of .a, the linker (both BFD and gold) can still use these archives as libraries.
