unknown symbol `_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_' in 0.4.* about hs-gsl-random

[patperry]

Thanks for the report. Could you send me the following:

1. the output from the command gsl-config --libs
2. the output from the command gsl-config --cflags
3. the file gsl-random-0.4.1-*.conf (where '*" is a long hex string) from ghc/package.conf.d. For the precise directory location, run ghc-pkg list gsl-random.

Thanks for your help, here's the output of the commands (with your email obfuscated a bit, just in case):

1. $ gsl-config --libs
   -L/usr/lib -lgsl -lgslcblas -lm
2. $ gsl-config --cflags
   -I/usr/include
3. $ cat /var/lib/ghc-6.12.1/package.conf.d/gsl-random-0.4.1-3b837d038bb4bd0b076f0b28a1129f88.conf

Works for me if I remove the lines

if !os(darwin)
    cc-options:     -fPIC

, as suggested by Patrick. Should it read

if os(windows)
    cc-options:     -fPIC

instead?
