do you really have a semi-functional ar-replacement called "foo" in
your path? autoconf checks that the selected linker at least exists and
is executable. Furthermore if the linker exists, but is not functional,
then it will cause configure test failures.

Try copying your /usr/bin/ar to a different path (e.g. /tmp/har) and
trying it.
