Is there any way to change the name of a routine in an archive file?

My problem is that I have an archive file of routines that call
the subroutine 'foobarsub(3)'.  Unfortunately, the name has been 
truncated to eight characters to 'foobarsu' in the archive.
I only have the object form of the archive, and can't figure out
how to get the name to refer to the proper subroutine.

Am I missing something simple?  (Probably)

Please mail replies to ...ihnp4!shell!graffiti!bruce and I'll
summarize.

Thanks in advance.
