Don't claim that `ranlib -t' is useful.

Our ld is derived from gnu ld which doesn't check the timestamp on
__.SYMDEF.  gnu ld is designed to work with gnu ar which doesn't
even have a ranlib option (gnu ar updates __.SYMDEF automatically
if __.SYMDEF already exists, so gnu ld expects __.SYMDEF to be up
to date if it exists).
