Description

I have found an ar file (it happens to be a .lib file) which has 6 ASCII spaces for both the UID and GID fields.

This goes through ArArchiveInputStream.asInt which throws a NumberFormatException.

I'm not sure what the correct behaviour is, but the 'ar' utility I have on hand shows 0/0 for uid/gid for the same file.
