have an idea how to fix it? Without fix I would recommend to disable
dynamic linking in `config.mk.in` for ghc-7.0.3
IIRC I've got different relocation error. IMHO since Oracle plans to
release Solaris 11 in 2011 it would be unfortunate to have 7.0.3 not
supporting shared libs and DTrace on this new Solaris. What about to
disable shared libs on 5.8/5.9/5.10 (i.e. Solaris 8/9/10) and leave it
enabled for other (i.e. 5.11 == Solaris 11 and future 5.12/Solaris 12)? I
may come with this patch for HEAD. Do you think you will be able to also
apply it to STABLE?
