Comment (by ezyang):

 Hello lukexi,

 The problem is that your binary contains a section which (1) is pointed to
 by relocations, and (2) GHC doesn't understand. The pre-7.10.x error is
 better because it looks like to make your code work we really do need to
 understand the relocation. (We could paper over the problem by simply
 skipping relocations in sections we don't understand, but it is quite
 likely that you will get some even more bizarre error.)

 Can you run your test program with `+RTS -Dl` (debug RTS) and tell us
 exactly what section is unknown?

 Edward
