#7929: -pgma and -pgmc flags dont work as expected on mac ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: carter | Owner: Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Os: MacOS X | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Testcase: | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: 7922,7678 ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Changes (by igloo): * status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid Comment: Aha, thanks for your diagnosis work. However, it looks like the problem here is either a Cabal bug, or a problem in your `.cabal` file. The output shows that Cabal is calling ghc like this: {{{ ("/usr/local/bin/ghc",["-c","-v","-static","-odir","dist/build/test/test- tmp","-Idist/build/test/test-tmp","-optc- march=native","-optc-O3","-optc-O2","-package- db","dist/package.conf.inplace","-package- id","base-4.6.0.1-2514ecbfe6573e639515d3e91d6e1f29","-package- id","vector-0.10.0.1-04d4a4538e7c444d2821bb98877cda5f","cbits/daft.c"]) }}} Note that it is not passing the `-pgm*` flags in this call. If you think it's a Cabal bug, then you can file a ticket in their bug tracker here: https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7929#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
