#10726: Upgrade MingW-w64 distributions for windows -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Phyx- | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.10.3 Component: Build System | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #9218 #9014 | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D1123 #10435 | Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by Phyx-): Yes, sorry, I was confused as to why the runtime linker was involved during a normal compilation. But `TH` makes sense. I guess a temporary solution to get `7.10.3` out the door is to just re- export everything from `mingwex` since you can't actually specify `-lmingwex` current. But I have wondered and still do why the RTS is re-exporting symbols like this instead of us just linking against `-lmingwex`. Do you have an idea why @awson? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10726#comment:39 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
