Bug Description

I am using the GNU ARM toolchain in a Cygwin environment on Windows 10. I find that if the path to the archive file is absolute the utility fails. For example this fails:

arm-none-eabi-ar rcs /home/Sid/projects/blackmagic/libopencm3/lib/libopencm3_stm32f0.a con.o

However this command works:

arm-none-eabi-ar rcs ../../libopencm3_stm32f0.a con.o

Is this a know issue? Is there a work-around (note editing the makefiles to only produce relative paths is not possible without diverging the project from the open source repo).
