Description Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-12-30 00:01:56 UTC 
FreeBSD ar supports a -T option:

     -T      Use only the first fifteen characters of the archive member name
             or command line file name argument when naming archive members.

But this conflicts with LLVM ar and GNU ar, and with ports, which all use or expect -T to mean thin archive.

node expects T to mean thin, not truncate archive member names -- the ar flags (crsT) are defined in a cmd_alink_thin variable.
