    FIX #1427, #1569: gcc 4.2.x needs -fno-toplevel-reorder · 2ebe8add
    Simon Marlow authored
    We now have various flags that need to be passed to gcc, but only if
    the local gcc version supports them.  So instead of wiring this
    knowledge into ghc when it is built, we now put these "extra gcc
    flags" into a text file in $libdir, extra-gcc-flags, which is created
    by configure.  It is also created by the configure script of a binary
    distribution, so a binary dist is independent of the gcc version used
    to build it.
    
    Hopefully I got the binary-dist stuff right, but binary dists aren't
    currently working so we'll need to come back and check this.
