I went on to describe a problem in which an existing archive wouldn't
properly be updated if a target was out of date.  Andrew Cherenson
(arc@kaibab.wpd.sgi.com) informed me that this is a known bug in the IRIX
3.3 version of pmake and has been fixed in the IRIX 4.0 version.

It's comforting to know that I'm not losing my mind :-)
