Comment (by ilovezfs):

 Cool, thanks a lot!

 Yes, I will definitely try it out. If I can get it working, I'll add it to
 https://github.com/ilovezfs/homebrew-ghc and possibly also to Homebrew
 core's devel and/or head spec for ghc.

 Right now I'm preparing the ghc 8.0.1 Homebrew release. Unfortunately,
 just hit a segfault using my old workaround (https://github.com/Homebrew
 /homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/ghc.rb#L53-L72) for the nm bug, which
 was to put a shim pointing to nm-classic earlier in the PATH than
 /usr/bin/nm. That old workaround has worked fine for 7.10.3b and 8.0 RCs,
 so I'm not sure if this is a new bug or not.

 Now I'm re-trying with "--with-nm=#{`xcrun --find nm-classic`}" to see if
 that also hits the segfault or not.
