It seems like we don't bypass the special filename "/" (symbol lookup table) in rts/Linker.c

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ar_(Unix)#System_V_.28or_GNU.29_variant

Ah, sorry, that line was truncated. I posted the output here: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/osa1/ea72655b8369099e84a67e0949adca7e/raw/9e72cbfb859cb839f1898af39a46ff0896237d15/gistfile1.txt

That line should be

+ghc-iserv.bin: internal loadArchive: GNU-variant filename offset not found while reading filename from `/home/omer/haskell/ghc/libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/libHSghc-prim-0.5.0.0.a'
+    (GHC version 8.1.20161107 for x86_64_unknown_linux)
+    Please report this as a GHC bug:  http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug

Did this line get truncated? It might help to have the rest of it.
