#8498: gcc hardcoded in build scripts! (ignores the --with-gcc= flag in configure) ---------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: carter | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: MacOS X | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by igloo): Why do we need to use the `--with-gcc` value for `$(CC_STAGE0)`? The idea is that you need to have a working bootstrapping compiler, and the inferred `$(CC_STAGE0)` is part of that. There's no particular reason that the `--with-gcc` value should work, though. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8498#comment:10 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
