I used https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer/downloads to
get a real gcc on Lion. Biggish download, but it worked. I've also
seen reports of success by self-compiling gcc, or by installing XCode
4 on top of an existing XCode 3 installation.

Thanks, looks like I already succeeded by downloading xcode 3.
Now my original question remains - is such a change a good idea?
(I've already found the place in code where the fix has to be made; should
take an hour of work at most)

Hi Eugene,
I think I did run into this problem before, and had to turn of split-objs
temporarily to work around it. I'd appreciate a fix.
Best,

Hi Brandon,
Thanks - looks like this would be a modification of the linking stage,
splitting it into two parts: batching objects and then actually linking
them.
Do you think that what I originally proposed is still a good thing to have

Hi,
I'm building gtk2hs on a mac with -fsplit-objs, and during compilation of
the largest file, which produces about 7000 split objects, the linking
phase fails.
I'm assuming that's because the command line length has been exceeded,
because other files compile fine, without -fsplit-objs it
Oh well... looks like building ghc won't be easy, as it doesn't build with
llvm-gcc and it's not easy to get a real gcc on Lion. But I don't stop
trying :)
