With the complete lack of output indicating any particular sort of
failure, I've no idea what the problem would be.

I'm guessing that it's losing on the commands not displayed for
actually building the library.  In the rule for "lib$(LIB)$(STLIBEXT)"
in the generated Makefile, take out the "@" at the start of each
command.  For the command starting "dirs=" you might also want to
stick "set -x;" in front.  Then try running make again.

It may be losing in the "ar" command.  Are you using native ar or GNU
ar?  Can you switch and see if that changes the situation?
