Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ghc6

As per
http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc-6.6/packages/unix/System/Posix/DynamicLinker/Prim.hsc
and http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/unix/include/HsUnix.h, ghc6 (or is
it libghc6-unixutils-dev?) needs to be compiled with the HAVE_RTLDNEXT
flag for its dlsym to support RTLD_NEXT, which is a valid flag in
Ubuntu's libc as per the dlsym manpage.

Without this support, it becomes difficult to use ghc to write shared
libraries meant to be used through LD_PRELOAD.

** Affects: ghc6 (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

-- 
Ubuntu's ghc is compiled without HAVE_RTLDNEXT
