So why does it sometimes work? I can write and compile executables
using haskeline, both with 'ghc --make' and 'cabal configure && cabal
build'.
This sounds like something I can patch haskeline to account for,
then?
After a bit of digging, I saw this snippet in the .cabal file for the
iconv package on hackage:
-- We need to compile via C because on some platforms (notably
darwin)
-- iconv is a macro rather than real C function. doh!
ghc-options: -fvia-C -Wall
<<<<<
But it looks like the 'iconv' package is broken in the exact same way
for me - I get the same crazy linker errors.
Yep, darwin is OS X :)
