Using patch as Simon suggested fixes issue after recompiling ghc-7.10.3 with it (rts/Linker.c):
{{{ - hdl = dlopen(dll_name, RTLD_LAZY|RTLD_LOCAL); /* see Note [RTLD_LOCAL] */ + hdl = dlopen(dll_name, RTLD_LAZY | RTLD_GLOBAL); }}} This patch breaks `ghci/scripts ghci058` at least on Linux and this is to be expected given ELF symbol resolution semantics. See the note referenced in note `RTLD_LOCAL` for a more detailed explanation.
Did you run `./validate` on MacOS with the proposed patch applied? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11499#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
