#16130: GHC Panic on OS X: Data.Binary.Get.runGet: Invalid magic number "INPUT(-l" ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: basvandijk | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: MacOS X | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment (by basvandijk): Ok so on Nix `libc++.a` is an [https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld /Implicit-Linker-Scripts.html#Implicit-Linker-Scripts implicit linker script]: `INPUT(-lc++_static -lc++abi)`. Maybe we should give GHC support for linker scripts. Initially it could just support the [https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/File- Commands.html#File-Commands INPUT] command. This shouldn't be that hard. [https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/blob/master/compiler/main/Ar.hs compiler/main/Ar.hs] needs to be adapted. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16130#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
