Yes, but I'm still at ghc-7,4.2. Not enough time to catch up with recent ghc development :-( > Is this a registerised or unregisterised build? Registerised, working on i386 and amd66 (or x86 and x86_64 in the non-bsd-world). > > That's partially because currently we've even a patch explicitely > > disabling shared library support in our ports/packages system (last > > time I tried with shared lib support, I got some segfaults in the > > midst of the build, and unfortunately I'm still too short of time > > to debug/fix it). > > That's a bit bizarre.

There were a lot of changes in OpenBSD during the last 6 months (including dl.so, pthreads, whatever). Wether there's a bug in the GHC build system, or in the (heavily patched) OpenBSD port, or in the binaries we use for bootstrapping, I really dont't know. I wouldn't ve surprised if it's some breakage on my side (with the bootstrappers i supply).
