I suspect today's problem is pretty easy to figure out for a GHC expert, but I'm not. When I try to build utils/genapply, the link fails because the symbols _GHCziList_lvl22_closure and _GHCziList_zdwlen_info are undefined. I'll include the build log
On actual problem, I have no idea except the simple..maybe .hi files were inconsistent with object files.
below. While we're on the topic, can somebody explain the algorithm used to generate these symbol names?
I might be wrong on any of this, but I'm giving it a shot as it might take over weekend before Simons or anyone else answers. It's called zencoding, found in http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc/compiler/utils/Encoding.hs _ on start is just some typical c-name thingy. Otherwise those symbols are from GHC.List module. _info and _closure mean different use of that name that comes before them (lvl22 and $wlen). I think compiler/cmm/CLabel.hs might help on that, or rather modules that use it. I am not sure how to track name generators for lvl22 and $. HTH, --Esa
