Hello, before going to fill some bugreports about broken unregisterised builds I'd like to be sure I understand the topic and know well how to configure it. So, I do have three platforms with Linux OS: - mips64: gcc 4.3.2 + ghc 6.8.2 (debian) - ARMv7: gcc 4.4.1 + ghc 6.10.4 (Ubuntu) - IA64: gcc 4.3.2 + ghc 6.8.2 (debian) on all three, I attempted to build 6.12.3 unregisterised by: ./boot ./configure cat > mk/build.mk GhcUnregisterised=YES GhcWithNativeCodeGen=NO SplitObjs=NO ^D make On all three platforms this failed with: mips64: "inplace/bin/ghc-stage1" -H32m -O -package-name ghc-prim-0.2.0.0 -hide-all-packages -i -ilibraries/ghc-prim/. -ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/. -optP-include -optPlibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen/cabal_macros.h -package rts-1.0 -package-name ghc-prim -XCPP -XMagicHash -XForeignFunctionInterface -XUnliftedFFITypes -XUnboxedTuples -XEmptyDataDecls -XNoImplicitPrelude -O2 -XGenerics -fno-warn-deprecated-flags -odir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -hidir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -stubdir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -hisuf hi -osuf o -hcsuf hc -c libraries/ghc-prim/./GHC/Generics.hs -o libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/GHC/Generics.o In file included from /home/kgardas/src/ghc-6.12.3/includes/Stg.h:230, from /tmp/ghc14979_0/ghc14979_0.hc:3:0: /tmp/ghc14979_0/ghc14979_0.hc: In function ‘ghczmprim_GHCziGenerics_zdgtoUnit_entry’: /tmp/ghc14979_0/ghc14979_0.hc:17:0: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘JMP_’ ghc-stage1: could not execute: /home/kgardas/src/ghc-6.12.3/inplace/lib/ghc-asm make[1]: *** [libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/GHC/Generics.o] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 ARMv7: "inplace/bin/ghc-stage1" -H32m -O -package-name ghc-prim-0.2.0.0 -hide-all-packages -i -ilibraries/ghc-prim/. -ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/. -optP-include -optPlibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen/cabal_macros.h -package rts-1.0 -package-name ghc-prim -XCPP -XMagicHash -XForeignFunctionInterface -XUnliftedFFITypes -XUnboxedTuples -XEmptyDataDecls -XNoImplicitPrelude -O2 -XGenerics -fno-warn-deprecated-flags -odir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -hidir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -stubdir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -hisuf hi -osuf o -hcsuf hc -c libraries/ghc-prim/./GHC/Generics.hs -o libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/GHC/Generics.o /tmp/ghc29691_0/ghc29691_0.hc: In function ‘ghczmprim_GHCziGenerics_zdgtoUnit_entry’: /tmp/ghc29691_0/ghc29691_0.hc:18:0: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘JMP_’ ghc-stage1: could not execute: /home/kgardas/src/ghc-6.12.3/inplace/lib/ghc-asm make[1]: *** [libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/GHC/Generics.o] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 IA64: "inplace/bin/ghc-stage1" -H32m -O -package-name ghc-prim-0.2.0.0 -hide-all-packages -i -ilibraries/ghc-prim/. -ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen -Ilibraries/ghc-prim/. -optP-include -optPlibraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/autogen/cabal_macros.h -package rts-1.0 -package-name ghc-prim -XCPP -XMagicHash -XForeignFunctionInterface -XUnliftedFFITypes -XUnboxedTuples -XEmptyDataDecls -XNoImplicitPrelude -O2 -XGenerics -fno-warn-deprecated-flags -odir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -hidir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -stubdir libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build -hisuf hi -osuf o -hcsuf hc -c libraries/ghc-prim/./GHC/Generics.hs -o libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/GHC/Generics.o /tmp/ghc15668_0/ghc15668_0.hc: In function ‘__stginit_ghczmprim_GHCziGenerics’: /tmp/ghc15668_0/ghc15668_0.hc:331:0: warning: function called through a non-compatible type /tmp/ghc15668_0/ghc15668_0.hc:331:0: note: if this code is reached, the program will abort ghc-stage1: could not execute: /home/kgardas/src/unreg/ghc-6.12.3/inplace/lib/ghc-asm make[1]: *** [libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/GHC/Generics.o] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 Is that my own mistake or is it really ghc 6.12.3 unregisterised build that broken?
