It turns out, ar couldn't quite handle building the symbol table for the archive. I tried ar qS, then ranlib the archive, but ranlib turns out to be exactly the same kind of brittle crap...
I am currently looking for more robust binutils - I'll appreciate any siggestions.
I tried this experiment too, with the same results. As a workaround you can disable object splitting. Add the line "SplitObjs=NO" to mk/build.mk before building. Cheers, Simon

I did that, and it got me a bit further.

BTW, I tried to compile the file with the installed ghc, and I am kind of puzzled by the error message I get: ghc -O -fasm -W -fno-warn-unused-matches -fwarn-unused-imports -ignore-package haskell-src -package base -fgenerics -hisuf p_hi -hcsuf p_hc -osuf p_o -prof -c Language/Haskell/Syntax.hs -o Language/Haskell/Syntax.p_o -ohi Language/Haskell/Syntax.p_hi ghc-6.2.2: -ohi can only be used when compiling a single source file Usage: For basic information, try the `--help' option. How am I trying to compile anything other than a single source file here??? Cheers, D. Tenev
I did a "devel" build this time, which produced some verbose output for the last line.

You need to make sure the -fasm flag is the last one on the command
line, via EXTRA_HC_OPTS:
paprika$ gmake EXTRA_HC_OPTS=-fasm
../../ghc/compiler/ghc-inplace -H16m -O -L/usr/local/lib -ignore-package haskell-src -O -Rghc-timing -fgenerics -package base -fgenerics -fasm -c Language/Haskell/Syntax.hs -o Language/Haskell/Syntax.o -ohi Language/Haskell/Syntax.hi
