Does the problem go away if you shorten the list of the *.o files?

If it does go away, please tell how long was the original command, the
one that failed.

If shortening the list doesn't help, please show the complete rule
which the ar command is a part of.

Also, which version of Make is that, and do you have any kind of
sh.exe (a port of a Unixy shell) somewhere on your Path?
