> My research suggests that this error is a symptom of trying to link something without the hard-float ABI together with something with a soft-float ABI. But I don't know where libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/HSghc-prim-0.3.0.0.o is coming from.
libraries/ghc-prim/dist-install/build/HSghc-prim-0.3.0.0.o is the output ld was asked to generate. Apparently, some of the input .o files didn't use VFP register arguments, so ld concluded that the output should also not use VFP register arguments. But then ld encountered a .o file that did use VFP register arguments, and threw an error (something in cbits, so probably built with different CFLAGS).
From your flags I'd say you miss -optlc-float-abi=hard. I had it in GhcLibHcOpts, but I'm not sure that is the correct way to ensure it is passed to everything exactly once.
