Does validate allow for testing other binaries than GHC? You can try adding a `run_command` test. See Building/RunningTests/Adding.
You'll need to tell the testsuite where to find the splitter. See find_tool and canonicaliseExecutable in `testsuite/mk/boilerplate.mk`. Alternatively, use a `compile` test that sets `-split-objs`. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9832#comment:10 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
