Hi, first of all, thank for taking on the various build failures on exotic architectures! Greatly appreciated!

And this means that dynamic linking is used, which works fine on amd64, but probably not everywhere. I’m surprised that it even fails on i386, though. I don’t think it is i386-specific, but I don’t really have more to say. I guess we need to escalate that to those that know more about the RTS and the linking. There is https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/3720, but I’m not sure how related that is, and in either case its not helpful.
