I don't immediately see the connection to #7442?

Just a thought. Even though PPC/Linux doesn't have the problem described in the note `[inconsistent-pic-reg]`, `PIC.initialisePicBase_ppc` still semms to be assuming only the first block is an entry point. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7534#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
