Is that how you're doing it, or are you trying to produce the GHCi object file manually? I was producing it by invoking ld directly, since I wrote the Makefile before the --auto-ghci-lib was introduced. However now I use --auto-ghci-lib and it seems to work, thanks. ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
Making GHCi object files on MacOS
Section 4.10.3 of the GHC manual tells me to use ld -r --whole-archive to convert a .a file into a .o file suitable for GHCi. However these options only work for GNU ld, which doesn't seem to be available on MacOS (uname -srv gives me Darwin 6.8 Darwin Kernel Version 6.8: Wed Sep 10 15:20:55 PDT 2003; root:xnu/xnu-344.49.obj~2/RELEASE_PPC). Specifically, I tried compiling the GNU binutils but got a message from its ./configure telling me that this wouldn't work for the ld directory. I presume there must be some way of producing GHCi object files on MacOS, but how is it done?

Now what should I do to prevent the GHCi linker complaining about duplicate definitions for __module_registered (which seems to be defined in some way in each object file)?
