I'm building GHC on NetBSD-amd64, and among other things
need to deal with the problem described in #2305 - native
code misses the __RENAME (__asm) directive in NetBSD include
files, and ends up linking to the wrong externals. The
author of #2305 reports that -fvia-C avoids this problem, so
I built the ghc 5/31 distribution I've been working on, with
GhcLibHcOpts=-O -Rghc-timing -fgenerics -fvia-C
(i.e., add -fvia-C compile option for library build.)
Does that seem like a reasonable solution? It does seem to
work, but I'm wondering if there are issues we can expect
with performance etc.?
The right fix is to add a C wrapper for the offending function (see my
other message, and reply to #2305).
Cheers,
Simon
