Here's some debian/rules hacks to fix this. This forces use of llvm-3.4 for building ghc, as well as modifying the wrapper scripts to force use of that version at runtime.
The control file also needs to be changed to depend on llvm-3.4, rather
than llvm.
Note that just uploading ghc with this patch should suffice; there's no
need for manual building on arm.
Since this bug could be resuting in bad builds of haskell libraries/binaries
on arm, I am going to try to make a ghc release as soon as I can figure out
enough darcs to do so.
ifneq (,$(findstring $(DEB_HOST_ARCH), armel armhf))
# Force use of a specific llvm package, the same version that ghc
# depends (and build-depends) on.
LLVM_PATH=/usr/lib/llvm-3.4/bin
export PATH:=$(LLVM_PATH):$(PATH)
endif
ifneq (,$(findstring $(DEB_HOST_ARCH), armel armhf))
# Ensure that the same llvm used to build ghc is used at runtime.
sed -i "s,exec ,PATH=\"$(LLVM_PATH):\$$PATH\"\nexport PATH\nexec ,"
