I'm trying to bootstrap ghc compiler with downloaded ghc binary
distribution (6.10.4). Passing some variables to ./configure for example:
{{{
./configure LDFLAGS="-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,combreloc"
CFLAGS="-O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -march=i686" ...
}}}
results in running configure scripts in libraries with incorrect options:
(for base library)
{{{
configure --with-
compiler=/home/users/atler/rpm/BUILD/ghc-6.10.4/ghc/stage1-inplace/ghc
--with-hc-pkg=/home/users/atler/rpm/BUILD/ghc-6.10.4/utils/ghc-pkg
/install-inplace/bin/ghc-pkg --prefix=/NONEXISTENT --bindir=/NONEXISTENT
--libdir=/NONEXISTENT --libexecdir=/NONEXISTENT --datadir=/NONEXISTENT
LDFLAGS=-Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,combreloc --configure-option=
CFLAGS=-O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -march=i686 ...
}}}
Notice that --configure-option (added in mk/cabal-flags.mk) was not
stripped for CFLAGS, actually it's stripped only for the first variable.
This further results in passing --configure-option to gcc when testing gcc
usability which obviously fails. Another interesting part is though
compilation of base fails, compilation process still continues and ends
with some mysterious error about not met dependecies.
