read-only-relocs on 64-bit OS X (was Re: ANNOUNCE: GHC 7.0.2 Release Candidate 1)

[David Peixotto]

I'm getting a warning from the linker when building programs using the 64-bit version of the release candidate on Mac OS X 10.6.

$ cat Hello.hs
module Main where
main = putStrLn "Hello, World"

$ ~/ghc-7/bin/ghc -fforce-recomp Hello.hs 
[1 of 1] Compiling Main             ( Hello.hs, Hello.o )
Linking Hello ...
ld: warning: -read_only_relocs cannot be used with x86_64

It doesn't seem to cause a problem when actually running the programs, from what I have seen so far.
