ghc-7.6.3 passes additional linker options after all the haskell object files, while ghc-7.8.1 does the opposite.
(...)
Is it intentional change?
Pretty sure it is intentional, because it's necessary for some options. ld options are not in general position independent, and can't be. I want to compile in a number of static libraries. I have the next line
in my cabal file:
ld-options: ./path/to/libsomething.a
You're abusing ld-options. Use extra-libraries for this; if it doesn't work then you have found another bug and should file it as such. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
