Quoting the original bug, #0000536:

Quoted 6 lines

Using buildroot from 20051105 I run into a problem trying to compile apps in my target system due to the fact that busybox's mini apps clobber the real binutils in buildroot. This is most noticable with ar for which the busybox version cannot create archives as is necessary to compile many apps/tools.

this was disabled a while ago:

$ grep _AR package/busybox/busybox.config
# CONFIG_AR is not set 

But now... both busybox 1.11.x.config and 1.13.x.config have CONFIG_AR=y (again).

The real solution it probably to ensure that the busybox installation step runs before the binutils one like it's done for util-linux.
