As for prototype mismatch there is a very heavy hammer I tried a while ago: ./configure --enable-unrefisterised CFLAGS=-flto LDFLAGS=-flto It dies in Cmm in things like 'memset' being 'const' incompatible with stdlib.h thing, but in general very nice thing to check for bugs repository-wide. And find real problems. I'll try that once again and post most relevant bits. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8965#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
