Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev

This is an auto-filed bug because sci-mathematics/topcom calls ar directly.
The issue was originally discovered on amd64, but it may be reproducible on other arches as well.
If you think that a different summary clarifies the issue better, feel free to change it.
Attached build log and emerge --info.

NOTE:
If you think it doesn't make sense fix these type of issues, I'd like to point out that won't be possible use a different AR implementation (like llvm-ar) by setting the AR variable. So this issue has been reproduced by setting the AR variable to x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ar and by removing the /usr/bin/ar binary.

This was "fixed" in b6f66306dc4 when I removed the old ebuild with the issue. The new version works fine with no /usr/bin/ar.
