Comment (by mboes):

 On FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE-p1, I get a bunch of e.g.

 {{{
 ...
 ld.lld: error: Section has flags incompatible with others with the same
 name libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/GHC/CString.o:(.text.sFl_info)
 ...
 }}}

 errors and the build fails. Passing `--disable-ld-override` fixes this. It
 should probably be added automatically on this platform through auto
 configuration (hard for users to guess upfront what combination of
 `./configure` flags will make the build succeed).
