Geoffrey: After a quick google of binutils, it's not obvious to me what role it plays in the compilation process or how I would find out if it supports sarxq?
The assembler comes from binutils on Linux. Carter: It's on linux (centos); gcc version is 4.4.7. Why is gcc even
getting involved in this process? I didn't think ghc used it at all anymore.
I think that was slightly confused; on OS X, the assembler is provided by Apple in the same package (Xcode command line tools) as gcc, although it's not part of gcc as such. (Apple doesn't use binutils, as its Mach-O object support tends to be out of date or broken.) I don't *think* gcc is involved with building stuff with -llvm. -- brandon s allbery kf8nh sine nomine associates allbery.b@gmail.com ballbery@sinenomine.net unix, openafs, kerberos, infrastructure, xmonad http://sinenomine.net
