[Nix-dev] Compilation of MLton on darwin

[Marco Maggesi]

Yes, this is exactly what I'm trying to do.  Prebuilt binaries of MLton for
darwin are available.
The problem is that to bootstrap the compiler you need first to patchelf
these binaries.
On linux this is done with the line I cited:
  patchelf --set-interpreter ${stdenv.glibc}/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
$(pwd)/../usr/lib/mlton/mlton-compile
So my question is, where I find the linker in nixpkgs on darwin?
I tried to grep the sources but I'm lost.
Thanks,
Marco
