Providing -fPIC (thanks Igloo :)) solves the "local relocation
entries" coming form the FFI stubs ...
... but uncovers yet a worse error. Now I get the "local relocation
entries" from libHStemplate-haskell.a .
Why doens't that library have position independent code?
A way to fix the error would be using the -dynamic flag, but for some
reason my OSX build doesn't have doesn't seem to have the dynamic
libraries.
The concrete error is "ld: can't locate file for: -lHShaskell98_dyn"

Hi,
I succesfully created dynamic loadable libraries (.so) with GHC6.6 under LinuxX86 using some C glue code and linking with -optl -shared.
Now I would like to port my code to OSX but linking with "-optl -bunde" fails giving a "local relocation entries in non-writable section" error.
I think that is becase under OSX, GHC calls gcc with -mdynamic-no-pic preventing my FFI stub object files to be linked.
Does anyone know why is -mdynamic-no-pic used or a workaround?
Thanks in advance,
Alfonso Acosta
