Hi, I have created a ticket about "Dynamic linking and libffi": http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7806 --Kazu
OK, I've just pushed another attempt; can you let me know whether HEAD now works for you, please?
Thanks.
That's expected. All the Haskell .so's should also be not found. That's why inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
I understand.
Build finished on FreeBSD and "ghc-stage2" works:
---- ./inplace/bin/ghc-stage2 --interactive GHCi, version 7.7.20130323: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done. Loading package integer-gmp ... linking ... done. Loading package base ... linking ... done. Prelude> ----
However, "gmake install" failed:
---- Installing library in /ghc-head/lib/ghc-7.7.20130323/haskell2010-1.1.1.0 "/ghc-head/lib/ghc-7.7.20130323/bin/ghc-pkg" --force --global-package-db "/ghc-head/lib/ghc-7.7.20130323/package.conf.d" update rts/package.conf.install Shared object "libffi.so.6" not found, required by "libHSrts-ghc7.7.20130323.so" gmake[1]: *** [install_packages] Error 1 gmake: *** [install] Error 2 ----
The installed "ghci" says:

No LD_LIBRARY_PATH is found from installed scripts.
