#8834: 64-bit windows cabal.exe segfaults in GC ----------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: awson | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1-rc2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) Type of failure: Runtime crash | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: ----------------------------------+---------------------------------- Comment (by thoughtpolice): Simon's patch works on x86_64 windows, with or without SPJ's temporary workaround committed. Cabal works properly. The testsuite looks quite clean modulo some perf numbers. Looks good! So I think technically this bug is fixed. But there's still an alleged 32bit error somewhere that Ganesh had, and Simon also had. I've had reports of Windows 7 being problematic in particular, so I'm looking to reproduce it right now with my build. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8834#comment:76 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
