Linker error in stage2

[Gabor Greif]

Hi Ian,

I am getting linker errors when bootstrapping HEAD with a recent
v7.7-20130220 GHC. This is a RHEL5 system:

deploy -no-auto-link-packages -Lrts/dist/build -lffi  -optl-Wl,-rpath

Apparently stage1 builds fine, not sure what can cause this.

Any idea?
