page stated, thus BSD ar(1) option -q, which was implemented based on
the GNU ar manual page, turns out to be incompatible with GNU ar -q.
This change will make BSD ar(1) -q a *REAL* GNU ar -q:
1. It will update symbol table. (same as unfixed version)
2. It will NOT compare new members spcified in the command line args
with existing members, instead, append them directly.

Thanks to gabor@ for building ports for it.
Thanks to erwin@ and kris@ for scheduling the ports build test on pointyhat.
And thanks to many others for their feedback.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
