ghci crash on startup: R_X86_64_32S relocation out of range.
On freebsd-7.0 I have a working ghc-6.8.2 bootstrapped from a ghc-6.6.1 itself boostrapped from a 32-bit machine. I'd like to create a bindist for this platform, for which there are as yet no available binary distribution of ghc, but before that it would be nice if ghci worked. Currently I get the following error:
mboes@caracas:~/ > ghci
GHCi, version 6.8.2: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
ghc-6.8.2: internal error: R_X86_64_32S relocation out of range: (noname) = 0x802d779c0
(GHC version 6.8.2 for x86_64_unknown_freebsd)
Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug
[1] 21394 abort ghci
This bug has also been spotted before by Tim Newsham on ghc-6.8.1 on Freebsd-amd64 as well. Could this be related to #1562 (closed) or #1073 (closed) on Linux?
