Windows doesn't have strip in defalt. He must install MinGW or installing strip by hand for to use strip. On the other hand, ghc always has -split-obj option in any platform. Of cource, that can use Windows platfrom too. So I think -split-obj is better than strip. On Mon, 03 Mar 2008 08:42:46 +0900, Eric Y.

I see. I don't know why ghc generate ld.script. But I find an problem by linking whole object by ar on Windows platform. I report that in next mail.
