Can't build 8.6.1-beta1 with debugging.

[Ömer Sinan Ağacan]

Hi Mateusz,

> /usr/bin/ld.gold: error: cannot find -lHSrts_thr_debug_p

We currently don't ship GHC with profiling + debug + threaded runtime. See my
previous email on this:
https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2018-July/015982.html

I show a way to enable these runtimes in
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15508

Hope this helps,

Ömer

Strange but OK... I decided to try unprofiled with LLVM to see if some LLVM issue we had with current version (7.10.x) has gone away. Sadly I encountered a segfault during regular compilation (clean build, LLVM 6.0). I had no debugging symbols.
