Alright, I think I'm close to nailing this. I think there is something suspicious about the `HSinteger-gmp-1.0.2.0.o` file from GHC's `integer- gmp` lib folder. I think all that we need to do to fix this issue is remove this file. When I do that, everything starts working again.
Note that the symbols provided by this object file are already in the static library of the same name. Furthermore, when I manually install GHC (after building from source), this troublesome file is not present.
I'm obviously still investigating, but I figured I'd ask if anyone knows any reason `HSinteger-gmp-1.0.2.0.o` should not be deleted...
This object is a monolithic relocatable object used by statically-linked GHCi. Are you seeing it being loaded? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15105#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
