RE: ghc 2.10/HPUX: PerformGC_wrapper unsatisfied symbol

[Sigbjorn Finne (Intl Vendor)]

Hmm..that linker error does seem faintly familiar. The
2.10 mangler is to blame; try applying the attached
patch to ghc-asm.prl (you'll probably have to do
this manually rather than with 'patch', but it
should hopefully be clear what changes are required.)

Having done so, you'll need to recompile "stuff".
I can't remember if this bug requires you to
recompile the 2.10 prelude; run 'nm' over the Prelude
archive (libHS.a) looking for the unbound data
section symbols to find out. If not, then you
'only' need to recompile whateve sources that showed up
the problem in the first place.

Perhaps others on this list have more pertinent info on
what to do to get ghc-{2,3,4}xx working successfully under
HPUX? It's been 2 years+ since I last tried to build ghc
on that platform.
