GHC panics when linking with an archive and using an annotation
GHC panics when compiling code with an annotation and linking with an archive (a .a
file). I think this is the same as #9438, but I have a really simple test case consisting of the following two files:
// add.c
int add2(int x, int y) { return x + y; }
-- app.hs
{-# ANN module () #-}
main :: IO ()
main = return ()
First I make an archive:
$ gcc -c add.c -o add.o
$ ar libadd.a add.o
And then the following fails:
$ ghc -ladd -L. app.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( app.hs, app.o )
ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
(GHC version 8.2.2 for x86_64-apple-darwin):
Loading archives not supported
Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
make: *** [app] Error 1
The attached tar.gz has these source files and a Makefile to run the above. I've tested it on OS X 10.11 and Linux, both with GHC 8.2.2, and the behavior is the same.
