I had some problems building VirtualBox on a RedHat 3 ES machine, The "ar" command failed to find an input file -- the message shows a truncated name compared to what is in the script fed in via -M.
Looking at the source code it appears that the grammar file that specifies the allowable characters in file names in -M script files is far too restrictive. In my case, I was running in an AFS file system and there was an @ in the path name -- that is not allowd by the grammar. The grammar needs to be fixed to not be so restrictive on what is allowed in file names.
