A classic way to cross compile tools is override
things like CC and RANLIB and AR.  When trying to build
lua for an arm-based platform, I employed this technique.

Unfortunately the src/Makefile has 'AR= ar rcu'.  So when one
overrides AR (with the cross platform version, arm-ar), building
liblua.a fails because the 'rcu' is missing.

I'd like to submit the following patch to fix that issue.
If there is a better place to submit this, please let me know.

In case the number of votes helps a patch being submitty: I second this.

Third.  We do this every time.
