 Just got `gcc (Debian 6.2.0-9) 6.2.0 20161019` in a recent upgrade (Debian
 Testing) and now:
 {{{
 > cat hello.hs
 main :: IO ()
 main = putStrLn "Hello"

 > ghc hello.hs -o hello
 [1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( hello.hs, hello.o )
 Linking hello ...
 /usr/bin/ld: hello.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S against symbol
 `stg_bh_upd_frame_info' \
 can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
 /usr/bin/ld:
 /usr/lib/ghc-8.0/lib/base-4.9.0.0/libHSbase-4.9.0.0.a(Base__166.o): \
 relocation R_X86_64_32S against symbol `stg_bh_upd_frame_info' can not be

 ....
 }}}

 The previous version of gcc in Debian Testing (gcc (Debian 6.2.0-6) 6.2.0
 20161010) is fine.
