My Solaris has copies of "ar" in both /usr/ccs/bin and /usr/xpg4/bin
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 31176 Aug 10 2005 /usr/ccs/bin/ar*
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root bin 31120 Aug 10 2005 /usr/xpg4/bin/ar*
It might be worth using one of those explicitly on a Solaris system,
regardless of the value of PATH (but that's a lot of work).

I also think that "long" is a better choice for ssize_t than "int",
when ssize_t is unavailable.
Even better yet, but much more work, would be to check which of "int",
"long", "long long" is of the same size as size_t, and use that.
