Could not find any reference to __libc_read in either gnumach or hurd
code. The only place was in the binary file
hurd-20110319/ext2fs/ext2fs.static, but I assume this comes from a
linkage with libc. Is the calling function in the Haskell cabal-bin
binary linked with libc0.3 (and other libs)? How to enable debugging for
Haskell binaries with gdb?
