Allow the location of the ar binary to be set using the AR variable. Needed to support cross compilation toolchains where tools are prefixed like e.g. /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ar to avoid runing into build errors.

use $(AR) variable in lib build instead of ar literal. Closes issue #261

Thanks for applying the first part of the patch, however with the second part (commondefs) missing it still fails to build since AR=ar. With AR ?= ar it takes ar as default but allows the variable to be set to something else.

Sorry about this, I pushed another update, hopefully I did not mess it up again !
