[Haskell-iPhone] Building GHC cross-compiler failing on libffi

[Luke Iannini]

It looks like GHC might have just integrated an updated gcc detection
routine. Can you guys try this configure line?
./configure --target=i386-apple-darwin11 --prefix=/usr/local/ghc-ios-sim/
--with-gcc=i386-apple-darwin11-gcc

it should force it to use the correct gcc.

Cheers
Luke
