[Bug binutils/363] ar no longer errors out on non-existent files

Hi,

  The problem is the call to get_file_size() in replace_members() which detects
an empty file but which does not cause the program to exit with an error code. 
Since ar_emul_append() can handle empty files correctly anyway, there is no need
for the get_file_size function call.  Thus I am applying the attached patch.

Cheers
  Nick

        * ar.c (replace_members): Do not use get_file_size as
        ar_emul_append correctly handles missing files.
