I just realized GHC 8.4.2 doesn't ship a debug + prof RTS, and HEAD doesn't build it with release build (no build.mk) or with prof flavor. It seems to me that this is a bug, because some debug files in RTS (e.g. Printer.c) actually check PROFILING macro in a few places and print different stuff depending on that.
Anyone know if this is intentional? It's really inconvenient that I can't use debug runtime to debug profiling build issues..
Hmm, it sounds like a bug. I see debug_p in mk/ways.mk. It looks like it's missing from GhcRTSWays, however (defined in mk/config.mk). Cheers, - Ben
