Commit: Add checks for overflowing 4Gb archive symbol table limit

[Nick Clifton <nickc at redhat dot com>]

Hi Guys,

  I am applying the patch below to catch a problem with ar creating
  invalid archives (because the file offsets in the symbol table overflow
  the 32-bits that are available to them).  This is not just a
  theoretical problem - it has now started happening with real libraries
  in real production systems.

  As a side effect of the patch I have also extended readelf's dumping
  of archive symbol tables to include the file offset to the member
  containing the symbols.  This is useful to help track down problems
  like the file offsets overflowing 32-bits.

Cheers
  Nick
