Mac OS 10.5 Compilation issue

[Eric E]

Hi,
  I'm trying to follow the instructions here:
http://wiki.scilab.org/Compiling_Scilab_5.x_under_MacOSX
to compile Scilab for Mac OS 10.5.  After resolving all the dependencies,
I've run into a (hopefully) last problem building a static library:

ar cru .libs/libscilab.a
ar: no archive members specified
usage:  ar -d [-TLsv] archive file ...

A longer trace is below, but can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks,

Eric
