You receive this bug because this package does not respect my system's AR (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ar) and calls directly /usr/bin/ar
The possible solutions to fix this issue are:
1)Fix the buildsystem, if you can;
2)inherit toolchain-funcs and use tc-export AR
3)inherit toolchain-funcs and use emake AR="$(tc-getAR)"


From the build log:

libtool: link: /usr/bin/ar cru .libs/libgnu.a .libs/base64.o .libs/c-ctype.o .libs/full-read.o .libs/full-write.o .libs/localcharset.o glthread/.libs/lock.o 
glthread/.libs/threadlib.o .libs/asnprintf.o .libs/fsusage.o .libs/physmem.o .libs/printf-args.o .libs/printf-parse.o .libs/regex.o .libs/safe-read.o .libs/safe-write.o
