It was in comp.sources.misc v12i014 as ranlib/part01, and therefore
should be available from the usual archives (including 1-900-GOT-SRCS
I suppose).

ObTechContent:  r$ found a bug in it: malloc() wasn't declared, and
		*needs* to be, if you're using it on a 286.
		Why should anyone want to use it on a 286, you ask ?
		Apparently, the 286 ranlib runs out of space quicker
		because it uses a fixed size table.  Tut tut.  Presumably
		r$ has some mighty big archives :-)
