[FLASH-USERS] Problem linking libma28 in Cellular

[Kevin Moore]

Both suggestions worked, thanks Petros!  

Any idea why this issue only came up with ma28? It looks like the only other library it was explicitly linking was hdf5, so I'm assuming I built that with ar -rs or something else that prevented this from popping up.

For a more permanent solution you can also modify the makefile to explicitly request the creation of the table of contents: In lib/ma28/source/Makefile add an s after the r.
