3550	Dynamic libraries don't work on Mac OS/X	StephenBlackheath	igloo	"GHC doesn't build properly on Mac OS/X when dynamic library support is enabled.  And, when GHC is successfully built with dynamic library support (with tweaks), it doesn't build or link dynamic libraries properly.

I've provided a set of patches, broken up with explanations.  We need to discuss whether adding an -install-name option to GHC is acceptable to the GHC team.

Note: A separate patch for Cabal uses the new -install-name option.  Without this applying this in the ghc tree, the Cabal installed along with ghc will not generate shared libraries on Mac OS/X with the right install name."	bug	closed	high	6.12.3	Compiler	6.11	fixed	dynamic mac osx	mwotton pho@… nonowarn@…	MacOS X	Unknown/Multiple	None/Unknown	Unknown	http://upcycle.it/~blackh/ghc/test-case.tar.bz2
