   Is there a reason why ARADD is used in the standard libraries and
   ARCHIVE is used in ss and et...

   ARCHIVE is not as good when you modify one of the objects... The flags
   which I am seeing, then
   complain about multiple definitions in the library.... Perhaps the
   Makefile.in should rm the archive before using the ARCHIVE directive....

Why not just use ARADD for ss and et as well?  I suspect the reason why
we're using ARCHIVE for ss and et is simply historic; it's what they
were using before.
