Carter pointed out I only mentioned the warning. ld spits out a warning and then the build fails in the linking phase because the static lib was ignored and not linked, making the main() provided by the lib undefined:

ld: warning: ignoring file /Users/schell/Code/blocks-ios/Blocks/dist-arm/build/Blocks/Blocks.a, file was built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (armv7): /Users/schell/Code/blocks-ios/Blocks/dist-arm/build/Blocks/Blocks.a

ld: warning: ignoring file /Users/schell/Code/blocks-ios/Blocks/dist-i386/build/Blocks/Blocks.a, file was built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (armv7): /Users/schell/Code/blocks-ios/Blocks/dist-i386/build/Blocks/Blocks.a

Undefined symbols for architecture armv7:

  "_main", referenced from:

     implicit entry/start for main executable

     (maybe you meant: _c_main)

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture armv7

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

A warning isn't an error.  Was there an error or did things work ?

I fixed my earlier problems with compiling primitive and vector by re-compiling ghc-iphone HEAD. It seems now that I can use arm/i386-apple-darwin10/11-cabal to build a static lib, but when I try to link it in my Xcode project I get ld warnings:

ld: warning: ignoring file /Users/schell/Code/blocks-ios/Blocks/dist-arm/build/Blocks/Blocks.a, file was built for archive which is not the architecture being linked (i386): /Users/schell/Code/blocks-ios/Blocks/dist-arm/build/Blocks/Blocks.a

I get one of those for each architecture being built (armv7, armv7s, arm64, i386). Here are some details on my setup:  https://gist.github.com/schell/f3a737171ce2f6b1119c

Any help would be much appreciated! :)
