Sorry I got a bit sidetracked working on other things. I have a slightly reduced testcase, but it still requires about 50M of objects so I'm working on reducing it even more. I did a test compile of ghc using the bfd linker and it does build (pass --disable-ld-override to ghc configure). This might be usable as a workaround if you don't want to delay the transition. I expect this will make ghc / haskell build times increase a lot on mips* though. Thanks, James
