Hi everyone, I'm trying to compile ghc from the latest source and am hitting an error "Symbol not found: _clock_gettime". I'm on Mac El Capitan and recently installed Xcode 8 which I'm sure is what caused the problem. Using Google I found some relevant pages including this one https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2016-July/012511.html but I've been unable to figure out what I can do to fix the problem. Any help would be appreciated. The tail end of my compilation output is below. Thanks in advance.
