You're getting the message because you copied the lib*.a files, so their
creation dates are later than the date hidden in the library.  The
simple solution (according to a friend, I haven't tried this yet) is
as follows:

1. use ar to dump the ranlib to find its idea of its date.
	ar t libc.a
  or	ar tv libc.a
   should work.

2. set your system date to one minute earlier than that date/time.

3. "touch" the file.

Thus, some variation of the following should work:

	ar tv libc.a
	date 8411061234
	touch libc.a

Check the Mark Williams documentation for the exact sequences.
