No need to hack GHC's view of the linker.

btw, it seems like hack in 3rd party tool to fix weird default ghc behavior

It might be weird, but it's traditional. Also the symbol information is sometimes useful: for example on Linux Valgrind understands it and can tell you which function has memory errors, or give you a profile (perhaps only useful for people working on the RTS like me).

I don't feel that strongly about it though.

Cheers,
