compiling vith -fasm fails:
 {{{

 }}}

 it succeeds with -fvia-C
 {{{

 -fgenerics -split-objs -c GHC/Float.lhs -o GHC/Float.o  -ohi GHC/Float.hi
 }}}

 it succeeds in all cases without `-split-objs`.
 The above failure caused the first
 {{{Failed to load interface for `Prelude'}}} error reported in #1437
