Expected results:
no failure

Additional info:
ghc 9.2.5 seems okay, as does 9.4.3 without Hadrian
Also no problem in Fedora releases, only EPEL 9
Comment 1 Jens Petersen 2022-11-08 16:16:13 UTC 
Reported upstream in https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/22427
Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2023-01-06 08:23:49 UTC 
So actually this issue was mismatch between llvm13 and el9 binutils.
llvm12 and binutils-2.35.2 seem to be fine.

Otherwise llvm13 and gcc-toolset-12-binutils-2.38 would probably work togther (though might need newer gcc?)

See the upstream issue for the technical details
