Void Linux: stack build crashes - GHC's choice of ld

[Osrepnay]

General summary/comments (optional)

I'm using the musl version of Void Linux, so the error might have something to do with musl. Also, when running the command that caused the error manually (/home/jimothy/.stack/setup-exe-cache/x86_64-linux-tinfo6/Cabal-simple...) I get a segfault.

Steps to reproduce

1. Run stack new helloworld new-template
2. Run stack build --verbose

Expected

The project building successfully

Actual

Error: https://gist.github.com/Osrepnay/ecd91eb57788a69f33826adf3f4dae6a

Stack version

$ stack --version
Version 2.7.3, Git revision 7927a3aec32e2b2e5e4fb5be76d0d50eddcc197f x86_64 hpack-0.34.4

Method of installation

Both installing from void's repos with # xbps-install stack and installing with the shell script do this, with the dependencies gcc, make, libffi, libffi-devel, zlib, zlib-devel, gmp, gmp-devel, ncurses-libtinfo-libs, ncurses-libtinfo-devel installed (although I'm not sure which -devel packages are necessary).
I also needed to use the fix from #3847 (specifically sudo ln /lib64/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) to make stack download ghc and cabal.

Update: I've switched to directly using the official musl ghc builds in my ~/.stack/config.yaml, but using stack ghc on even a hello world segfaults.

Update Update: I've gotten 8.10.7 working on redneb's musl bindists, but 8.10.4 segfaults because of a libgmp/ld.gold issue.

Update Update Update: I've tested 9.0.1, 8.10.7, 8.10.4, 8.10.3, and 8.10.4 seems to be the only one generating broken executables.

Update Update Update Update: I've tried reconfiguring and installing 8.10.4, and it works now. I don't know why it works now, maybe configure doesn't update disable-ld-override on the second run??\

Update Update Update Update Update: On redneb's builds at least, it does appear that I need to set $LD to ld.bfd and run ./configure with --disable-ld-override (?) on the first attempt at configuring for it to work.

GHCup is moving towards passing --disable-ld-override by default (not yet released). You will then be able to use that in conjunction with the stack provided metadata: https://www.haskell.org/ghcup/guide/#using-stacks-setup-info-metadata-to-install-ghc
