------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
Comment(by maeder):
This failure (also present in ghc-7.2.1.20111103) is caused by the `-no-
relax` flag set in `compiler/main/DriverPipeline.hs` (line 2000)
{{{
-- gcc on sparc sets -Wl,--relax implicitly,
but
-- -r and --relax are incompatible for ld, so
-- disable --relax explicitly.
++ (if platformArch (targetPlatform dflags) ==
ArchSPARC
then [SysTools.Option "-Wl,-no-relax"]
else [])
}}}
I don't know if it would work if gcc used a gnu-linker. Currently I'm
trying without this flag and get:
{{{

Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug

}}}
which looks like a 32 vs. 64 bit mismatch wrt GMP.
