Comment (by duncan):

 Replying to [comment:3 guest]:
 > I don't think it is a Cabal bug, because Cabal uses "ld" for linking
 which is a GNU linker that understands "-x".

 I disagree. ld is the name of the standard system linker. On GNU systems
 that's GNU ld, on Solaris and OSX it's some other implementation.
