Summary: multiple symbol definition in libHSbase.a

Initial Comment:
When building the library archive libHSbase.a, the makefile system includes not only all the split object files, but also the file PrimopWrappers.o. The split-object files for PrimopWrappers are also included, so there are multiply-defined symbols.
On Mac OS X, this means that ranlib fails to generate a sorted symbol table for the library, which leads to annoying warning messages and longer link times.
