GHC build is segfaulting with Xcode 7.3
This affects Xcode 7.3 but not Xcode 7.2.1.
make[1]: *** [compiler/stage2/dll-split.stamp] Segmentation fault: 11
For >= Xcode 7.3 (also the 7.3 CLT) the directory
"Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin"
now has the old nm renamed nm-classic and nm is a symlink to llvm-nm. By redirecting the build system's use of nm to use nm-classic the segfault does not occur.
I'm not sure what goes wrong with llvm-nm but it would be great if the build could be fixed to be able to use it without segfaulting, since using nm-classic is a hack and Apple may retire it at some point.
