            Bug ID: 44032
           Summary: llvm-ar fails to diagnose maximum file size of static
                    library
           Product: libraries
           Version: 9.0
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: Linker
          Assignee: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: me at mark-ingram.com
                CC: llvm-bugs at lists.llvm.org

(Apologies if this is filed in the incorrect place...)

link.exe will fail with the following error message when a static library
exceeds the maximum allowed:

lib.lib : fatal error LNK1248: image size (100056B90) exceeds maximum allowable
size (FFFFFFFF)

Instead, llvm-ar gives errors about corruption, e.g.

lib.lib : fatal error LNK1127: library is corrupt

In other situations I've seen it complain about failing to find symbols, due to
invalid characters in the static library.
