testsuite fails on alpine linux with ghc 8.10.7
Summary
Testsuite fails with ghc 8.10.7 on alpine
Steps to reproduce
On Alpine linux edge x86_64 build ghc with something like:
apk add build-base ghc-bootstrap cpio binutils-gold ncurses-dev xz-coreutils grep linux-headers musl-dev zlib-dev gmp-dev binutils-dev python3
cp mk/build.mk.sample mk/build.mk
cat >> mk/build.mk <<-EOF
BuildFlavour = perf-llvm
INTEGER_LIBRARY = integer-gmp
BeConservative = YES
GhcStage3HcOpts += -O3
SplitSections = YES
EOF
# NOTE: ghc build system requires host == build, and it ends up
# compiling the cross-compiler (stage1) and cross-compiling with
# that the native compiler (stage2)
./configure \
--build=x86_64-alpine-linux-musl \
--host=x86_64-alpine-linux-musl \
--target=x86_64-alpine-linux-musl \
--prefix=/usr \
--without-system-libffi \
--disable-ld-override \
LD=ld.gold
make
cd testsuite
# workaround
make -C timeout all
# run the tests

Environment
- GHC version used: ghc 8.10.7
Optional:
- Operating System: Alpine linux edge
- System Architecture: x86_64
Downstream merge request: https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/merge_requests/6640
Note that I have removed the system libffi and added a make -C timeout all work around. We want build alpine with bundled libffi statically linked due to #20051 (closed)
