      Type:  defect         |       Status:  new      
  Priority:  normal         |    Milestone:  Cabal-1.8
 Component:  Cabal library  |      Version:  HEAD     
  Severity:  normal         |     Keywords:           
Difficulty:  unknown        |   Ghcversion:           
  Platform:  Linux          |  
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 With ghc-6.12 {{{--enable-shared}}} now works well to create shared
 libraries,
 however executable binary programs generated with Cabal are always
 statically linked.  When configuring with --enable-shared they should be
 dynamically linked if possible.

 Here is a patch tested successfully with ghc-6.12 RC1 on Linux.
