Hi Jens, It took me a while to set up my build on openSUSE. I see the same issue on ppc: All dyn programs segfault. In addition: Dynamic does not seem to compile (assembler errors) with binutils 2.23. My builds are here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:ptrommler/ghc and testsuite results: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:ptrommler/ghc-testsuite Speaking of ppc64: Do you see ticket #8849 too?

Sorry correct link is: http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=1711459&name=build.log&offset=-4000

I filed https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8909 for this issue.

I see: I don't have access to ppc hardware currently

Likewise, I get my results from the OBS service.

but I can try to reproduce later.

Does it show up in the testsuite results too? I can generate those easily with another rebuild. Yes, in fact I noticed the error in test arith005 and extracted the small test case for #8849.

In #8819 I reported test failures in an unregisterised compiler produced on my x86_64 machine using an unregisterised ghc. Almost all arith tests including arith005 fail and I suspect it might be a data layout issue. I wonder if you can reproduce #8819 on ppc64. #8849 makes me think yes. I’ll see if I can fix my ppc64 build on OBS and report back. Peter
