    reassign 267139 binutils
    thanks

    This appears to be a regression in ar as of binutils 2.15.

    $ ar q conftest.a -input /dev/null
    ar: '-input': No such file
    ar: Warning: '/dev/null' is not an ordinary file
    $ echo $?

    0
    $

    Previous versions of binutils exited with a value of 1 in the case of
    missing files.

    Thanks,
