+ <title>The splitter</title>
+
+ <para>The splitter is another evil Perl script
+ (<filename>ghc/driver/split/ghc-split.lprl</filename>). It
+ cooperates with the mangler to support object splitting.
+ Object splitting is what happens when the
+ <option>-split-objs</option> option is passed to GHC: the
+ object file is split into many smaller objects. This feature
+ is used when building libraries, so that a program statically
+ linked against the library will pull in less of the
+ library.</para>
+
+ <para>The splitter has some platform-specific stuff; take a
+ look and tweak it for your system.</para>
